Default Cheese Scones (and raisin ones)

And they're called Scones too, not tea biscuits.

In Sobeys, labelled as Old Style British Scones.

I don't think I've seen anything but plain ones until now. No cinnamon either.

They'll get cheese pasties and steak and kidney pies yet.

YIGGS have got some lovely Mince Pies in- from Scotland with whisky in - yum. Super expensive though $12.99 for a box of 6. Labelled as tarts here! Doh!

I thought the dainty ones that Sobeys get in here were expensive.

It's time I did a batch. I have the shells already, just needs a dollop of my PC rum mincemeat and I have a version with cranberries in to try.

I saw them called Tea Biscuits at the weekend in Toronto in the Summerhill Market, they had Plain, Raisin and Cheese.

The bigger issue is the lack of clotted cream to top them with.
