Raisin, Coconut & Oat Scones with a Maple Glaze

Scones will always remind me of the coffee house that I worked at in college. We always had them & they always sold out. I would always bring some to my mom when I could - she was (& still is) a huge fan of the scones at Immaculate Consumption. I of course ate them but I never made them.

This past weekend I decided I would finally give it a try. I combined a bunch of recipes to come up with mine which I can say I’m proud of. If you’ve never had a scone it’s like the love child of a biscuit and muffin. They can be sweet or savory. The ones I opted to make were sweet with raisins, coconut & a maple glaze. 

Have a great weekend! I hope you make these for breakfast :)

Camel Colored Accessories


pants: H&M; shoes: Franco Sarto.

I remember when I was in college, many years ago (eeeeks!) & my bestie, Amanda, bought a pair of camel colored boots. We both ogled ‬at them agreeing that they were indeed a must-have despite collegiate credit card debt. When Amanda would try them on we also both agreed that they looked a little cowgirlish (not the look at the time) so they would stay nice & unscathed (read: unworn) at the apartment. It seems as though we just didn't know what to do with that color, yet we were still drawn to it.

That was then, this is now. I can't believe my life without camel colored accessories. They go with everything - or at least I think so.  I hope you still have those boots Amanda, they (& you!) were ahead of our closets :)
