The secret ingredient

Yesterday was spent with me nursing my sore throat on the couch. Since I was obviously not up for much, the Galumph and Grumbles thought that it would be a fine thing indeed to head into the kitchen and make a mess whip up some scones.

And despite the fact that Grumbles spent a delighted 5 minutes rubbing the mixture up and down her father's arm, they tasted pretty darn good. Forget adding cream instead of milk. The real secret ingredient is obviously a pinch or two of Staphylococcus epidermidis. Yum!
