I found this recipe for Cinnamon Scones on the Pioneer Woman's blog. (Photo is from her blog.) Doesn't it look yummy? Wouldn't you love one for breakfast with a cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk?
Hubby LOVES cinnamon... maybe more than me... so I thought I would surprise him with these lucious looking/sounding scones. But they were not meant to be... at least not today.
I went to several grocery stores and the co-op looking for cinnamon chips... no luck. I gave up and came home and did a Google search for the much desired chips and I found them! Eureka! No scones today but maybe one day next week............................ and then I checked the price... YIKES!
$7.95 for a 16 ounce bag. Okay, this is for hubby... he's worth it, right? Sure he is... don't be so cheap, get them! Talked myself right into them... filled out the order blank... and then I got to the shipping part. Are you sitting down? $6.50.... are you kidding me? That's almost as much as the chips cost... I love my hubby. I really, really do and I would do just about anything for him... but $14.45 for one ingredient for a recipe that will make 16 scones... if I cut them really, really small? I ... just... couldn't... do... it.
I think I'll go make pumpkin chocolate chip muffins instead... I've three pounds of those in my freezer...
Thanks for dropping by...
