Now THAT is a pile of scones! I can't remember what flavor these are, but I think they may be date-cinnamon. Cap's been cooking up the scones for days for the annual tea coming up for Miss D!

They really are good with tea or coffee and pretty traditional. Not overly sweet, for the most part, they taste great with a cuppa and make hot beverages truly a relaxing treat and ceremony. Long live the English scone, even though we put our own, American twist on the comestibles.

All is in order for the tea party. Silver polished, hot water urn filled, berry bowls out, sammich ingredients at the ready, champagne cooling and great guys all lined up to make the event another wonderful success. Miss Denise thinks it might be her approximately 11th year of the activity, but it's a fun November tradition. Cap is ready to head to the podiatrist this week, however, so that he can stand and run his favorite Kitchen Aid mixer for hours at a time without the hurt!

The new rescue dog, Dobby, tried to steal a bride cake topper from the gifts that Jolene gave us last week, and I found the poor bride in the grass in the front of the chapel. Fortunately, she didn't get through the packaging before the discovery. Naughty girl.

Anyway, hope everyone is well and enjoying the "Coffee with Cap" series on the chapel's Facebook page, and we thank so many of you for checking it out! Blessings to one and all and have a wonderful and blessed Sunday!
