W.W. Three Berry Scones


I have started back on Weight Watcher (which I should of never strayed from). So I went looking for a Berry recipe other than my smoothie one I make. Came across this one and   knew I had to try it. I have a thing for scones. These scones are good and even got a thumbs up from "the Man of the Place". So good that I had my limit 2 and he had the rest of what was on the plate, 4.

Right now I only baked half and froze the other half for another time. It's been said in the comment section that they'll freeze well.
You must try, they are moist and tasty and
I'll make these again.

Three Berry Scones  

They lightened up this typically heavy English treat by using only a fraction of the butter and low-in-fat buttermilk in place of cream.

    1. Not me and that is why I need to get my eating habits back. I have so little control when it comes to scones. These I can have and not have to cut down the portion size, just enjoy.

  2. I think you missed the buttermilk in the above list of ingredients. It should be 1 cup(s) buttermilk.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...
