Best Ever Blueberry Scones
"These delicious Blueberry Scones are the perfect blend of sweet and tangy, with juicy blueberries folded into a tender, buttery dough. With a golden-brown crust and soft interior, they're a delightful treat for breakfast or tea. Quick and easy to make, these scones pair perfectly with a dollop of cream or a drizzle of honey." 🍯🍇I am a sucker for a scone. I can't go through a drive thru at a coffee shop without getting a scone. There is something just satisfying about them as they are almost like a biscuit and almost like a muffin. I had never made them before today, but I have to say I am pleased with my results and want to share all that "sconey" goodness with my readers.

Jan's Best Ever Blueberry Pancakes
Pancakes bring back happy memories for many people. We remember mornings as children watching the magic happen in the pan. It was always fun to be served the warm round discs with a smiley face made of syrup. As an adult I do not care so much about the syrup instead I like to infuse some sweetness into the pancake with fruit and vanilla. When the cake comes out of the pan I slip it a pad of butter and lightly sprinkle some sugar, regular or powdered. Why are these pancakes the best ever? They are fluffy, sweet, and sophisticated, The secret to their more sophisticated flavor is lemon zest. If you are feeding more than 2-3 people you will want to double the recipe.
