Grandma Phoebe's Scones

We used to get together with the Yarn Queen's family every Christmas season for a scone party. That was before Grandma sold her house. Now, we do it every other year, if someone volunteers their home. This year my cousin, Lindsay, organized something at the ward house, thanks Linds.
