Tracey, I didn't forget you! I managed to get a hold of Chris's mom's cookbook the day before I left and got a few scone recipes. Hopefully they'll remind you of your Gran's.

I hope to make some. Right now I am so busy with wedding stuff I just don't have time for myself and I am having a hard time staying away from goodies that I shouldn't eat right now so I figure if it's not in the house I won't eat it. I have however printed the receipes out and will for sure be making them. Probably around Thanksgiving.

Thanks again Jules.
