Hello again! I hope all you Americans out there had an awesome Thanksgiving, and everyone else had an awesome Thursday. Today’s post features my favorite snack to pair with tea: scones.

Scones are serious business. If you want to do them right, you need jam or preserves, plus clotted cream. So for today, I picked up some clotted cream and berry preserves from the World Market, and a cranberry scone from Wildflower Bread Company.

These preserves are fantastic, by the way. They’re made with strawberry, raspberry, and blackcurrant. (The first two are my favorite berries, and the third is also delicious, apparently.)

Anyway, to eat scones, just smear as much jam and cream onto the scone as you can stand. Smear it together all in a creamy sticky mess. Then enjoy!

And of course no teatime is complete without tea. Today’s selection is Golden Snail from Whispering Pines Tea Company. It’s a smooth black tea with notes of bread and honey, which really complement the scone.

Thanks for joining me for tea!
