disgusting milk, but gorgeous scones

I had a day to myself today – bliss after the long summer holiday.

Yesterday evening we had tea on the beach and I took some milk for drinks – unfortunately it got left in the bag for a while after our return and consequently turned almost immediately into yoghurt.

However, my mum always says off milk is good for scones so I got out my nan’s Good Housekeeping cook book circa 1952 and had a go.

My mum was right. They are the biggest, lightest scones I’ve ever made. Yum!
