Recipe Review
Today’s
Recipe and Location: Petite
Vanilla Scones
Found
in: The Pioneer Woman blog
I figured out that there are
181 calories per serving, if 38 scones are made. (Please note that the calorie
counts vary depending on the specific brands of ingredients that you choose to
use.)

Ree is a God when it
comes to making scones. I swear that each one is better than the previous
scone. I love this one. I bought my first vanilla bean and scraped the caviar
out of the middle, just like Ree did on the show. I felt very professional as I scraped the bean. How
weird! Ree’s beans were definitely
larger and more fresh than mine, so there was a bit of jealousy going on here.
I made so many of
these little gems that I took some to my Aunt Ada and another package to my
Mom. We also shared some for lunch. Mom really liked them, too.
If you have never
made scones, then you need to be bold and daring and try something new!!!
Random Reflections
One
of the things that makes me a frustrated woman, is getting a ring off of my
finger when it is totally stuck. At certain times, I retain water and have a
great deal of difficulty getting my rings off of my fingers. Usually, I can
trace the problem to eating a lot of salt, but it also could be that time of
the month, too.
The
best advice I received from State Street Jewelers is to use dishwashing soap,
like Dawn, to get your ring off of the finger. It not only helps the ring slide
off, but it also gives it a pretty shine, too.
Helpful Home Hints
If
you have a stainless steel sink like I have, there is a great way to bring out
the shine. After washing the sink with Soft Scrub, I used car polish on the
sink and the faucet fixtures to bring out the beautiful shine in the sink. I tried this and it really worked
great!
