YUM! I will definitely be trying the scones! We have such a large healthy rosemary bush and love to cook with it. Maybe if I make these today they will last until breakfast!
I found this post from the link up on Gooseberry Patch Skillet recipes. Your scones and fritta look delicious. I love using my cast iron skillet just like my grandmother did. Blessings, Diane Roark visit anytime at www.recipesforourdailybread.com
