My new favorite is crumpets. Last year my wife got me a gift basket from Wolferman's and man did I enjoy it! She got me a bigger basket this year for my birthday and the crumpets are awesome. Scones are okay, but I really don't get their charm.

Crumpets are wonderful if they are well toasted.

I had some in a tea shop once that were undercooked. Argh, nasty, nasty, flabby, pale and grown in the dark, sightless things. Like undercooked chips (fries) you can never completely erase the sense memory, and it gives you the fear every time you approach the same foodstuff in future.

Umm, my bad. The recipe I sent some of you should say three sticks of butter, not 1-1/2.
