pepper: Pepperpot (Scone)
Heeheeheeheeheeee! There's a thing called Nightmares and Dreamscapes on at the moment, a Stephen King TV adaptation, and everyone's telling these American honeymooners in London, "Crouch End! No! Don't go there! Arr, 'tis not a place for strangers!"

I'm very familiar with the place. It's urban and busy and literary and has the most fantastic bakery. And where they've gone is TOTALLY not Crouch End, in any way, shape, or form. I mean, it has its spooky aspects - it's fairly near Highgate Cemetery for a start - but this is... not it. *is amused*

*looks it up* Yeah, I can understand Stephen King being inspired by Parkland Walk, though.

(Fun facts: Gillian Anderson lived there when she was a child.)

Does this mean you have an equally excellent recipe for said scones you would be willing to share? I'd love any tips/hints to making my own. I'm kind of intimidated by them at the moment.... but am wanting some.. yummm

Well, I do have recipes, but... they're one of those things that are easy to do, if it's familiar, but is equally easy to screw up, with very little variation on the actual ingredients (I've done this plenty of times). :) *looks it up* Ooh, this is one I would trust: http://www.deliaonline.com/cookery-school/how-to/how-to-make-scones,24,AR.html
