Sorry I missed your challenge again. Scones are my favorite treats. It's been forever since I had one, it never occurred to me I could actually bake some. I seldom bake due to my diabetes and living alone. But scones, how lovely that would be.

Rose said...

I am embarrassed to say...but I guessed two. One of them was pure luck...one I really thought but not sure. I knew half of the two about April...and only actually knew one.

I knew all but one, number 5, Patron Saint. Obviously I know my birth month!!

Those scones look soo good! A family member struggles with gluten, and I am now collecting recipes to make so that she can eat them. The quiz sounded like fun... I didn't know many of the answers! So fun to learn the answers though! Love the month of April... spring is arriving here in our world :)
