Scones With Whipped Cream and Cherrie Pie Filling

I had left over scone dough the other day and decided to make them for breakfast.  While I was searching the fridge for other breakfast items I remembered I had left over pie filling and whipped cream from other meals.  I really hate to waist so I fried up the scones and topped them with the cherry pie filling and whipped cream.  They were really decadent.  They were so rich one is more than enough.



The recipe is a buttermilk scone recipe.  I have the recipe book and would recommend it to everyone. There are a few recipes in there that I love.  If you cannot find the book I did look up a blog that has a recipe for them.http://lovellfamilyrecipes.blogspot.com/2010/02/lion-house-buttermilk-scones.html  When I topped the scones with canned pie filling.  I am sure any flavor will do.  I had homemade whipped cream because we have a corn allergy and most purchased whipped creams have corn starch and corn syrup.  It melts on the hot scone quickly but it is delicious.
When I am not making loads of scones I just fry them in a skillet on the stove.  If I am doing loads I will use my deep frier.  When you test the oil to see if it is hot enough dip the end of your dough in the hot oil.  If it bubbles right away it is ready to fry your scones.

Quilted Works

Quilted Works
I was in St. George the other day and went to Quilted Works.  It is a darling store with all sorts of fun fabrics and patterns.  I was really impressed with the selection of lazer cut pieces you can get to make beautiful quilts.  I had seen a couple before but they had more.  They had sewing machines too.  The whole store really could inspire you to start a few new projects for the year.  Here are some of the samples they had.


I think the snowflakes are some of the lazer cut fabrics.



I thought you would all want to check them out, so here is the information.






I love this idea.  I have some blocks I think would look great with the off set outline.  Great idea.
I love the bright colors and the embroidery.




They also do machine quilting.










The paw prints and words are machine embroidered.







I wish you could feel this.  It was amazing.  I would like to know how to do this.

These are done on their machines.  They had all sorts of fun ideas to make.


This would be perfect for the deer hunter in your life.




















Would that be fun or what?  I am sure that would be a blast.  You may want to check that cruise out.
