baking . .

chanda and i made scones this morning. we followed a recipe in the redwall cookbook that she borrowed from the library. we mixed white and whole spelt flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg. she worked in about five tablespoons of butter . .

. . sprinkled in some brown sugar . . added milk and rolled out the dough. then she cut eight wedges from each dough ball (we doubled the recipe).

they were good! we took them uptown with us when we visited friends later on in the day.

it was the first time visiting our friends in their home. they have a very nice basement apartment with a patio, lots of plants, and beautiful marigolds. they're also near a great playground in central park which makes living on their block a lot of fun.

in the evening, morgana worked on some math with greg. (it was a casual night . . an "everyone helps themselves to leftovers" night . . )
