End of the week and £2.80 in credit, rejoice!
We ran out of things for dessert mid-week, so I made some scones. They looked great (glazed with yoghurt), but I had overdone the baking powder and they were not nice at all.
Everyone was disappointed, but there was no time to make more.
I was wondering what scones made with yeast might taste like, and saw there were recipes out there.
Still no time, so I've thrown a yeast 'scone' mix in the bread maker to see what happens.Target £80 per week groceries, household and cleaning for four adults.0 -

small spend of £1.58 on 2 packs of sweets at the garage so I had some change for the car park later. I need to sort some change out so I don't have to keep spending unneccessary money to get change.
