Nan's Afternoon Delight

The girls are coming round for afternoon tea tomorrow for a long awaited catch up! unfortunately I didn't have much time to whip up a cake or cupcakes so I thought well one of my best friends is english she inspires me to love Tea parties she's so cute! so I purchased some T2 "Melbourne Breakfast" tea my favourite recommended by my awesome friend Van! and of course what goes with a good Tea my Nan's Lemonade Scones! when I look back on my childhood the one thing that stands out is driving to my Nan & Pop's house 2hrs out from Canberra at Bateman's Bay and arriving with the smell of my Nan's Lemonade scones they were always freshly baked with Butter, Jam & Cream we were spoilt! I miss my Nan's cooking! tomorrow will be extra special reliving this afternoon delight!
