England (#15) Tea and Scones

So today it hit 100 degrees!   I can’t think of a better day for tea and scones and dreaming about being in London where it’s only 60 degrees and drizzly.  I found a wonderful recipe for currant scones in one of my cookbooks called “SpecialTeas”.  I ran over to my local specialty food store and found a jar of clotted cream which is a must for scones.  I brewed a cup of chamomile tea and thoroughly enjoyed having afternoon tea at my home this afternoon.  Next weekend I think I'll make some British tea sandwiches such as cucumber or watercress and egg salad.
