An early good morning so you are on your own for coffee today.
The Stone Mill Cafe opens this morning and the chefs and I made a decision last night. You cannot make scones from the Mill's organic whole grain flower. I am about to go over to the Hall kitchen with fifteen pounds of white commercial flour and two of pounds of butter from my freezer stash so they can try again. Wish us luck - we open at 9 and scones and lemon curd are featured. (The lemon curd is fine - guess who made it?)
Darned cold here yesterday and overnight. I think my poor tender basil plants may have had it. Sunshine is on the menu today but the high will only be 50ºF. I hope your weather is better for this Memorial Day Weekend. (Seems so unfair to have lousy weather on a long holiday weekend!)
Gotta bundle up and get outta here. I'll bring you a warm scone made with "commercial" flour.
