The Ribbon in My Journal – Phyllis Hoffman DePiano

Highland Gourmet Scones!

It was several years ago Neal called me from one of the fire stations in the city where he worked. He said, very braggingly, “Guess what I am eating?” Of course, I figured a huge plate of food, as firemen are known for. He laughed and said, “We are having scones!”  I thought, You have got to be kidding. He sent me a photo and I was shocked!

So many times, families will bring treats to the station for the guys who have helped in a situation. One family sent two tins of scones from Highland Gourmet Scones. These firemen thought they had discovered gold! Neal brought a couple home to me and I was in heaven. They have become my favorite scones to purchase and to give as gifts! 

It turns out, I knew the couple who owned the business and was thrilled to learn they ship scones all over the country. Scones are just a part of teatime, and I love a scone with my Earl Gray tea.

This week kicks off Wimbledon, and did you know they serve over 110,000 scones at this renowned event? I can’t even imagine baking that many but what I can imagine is the delightful aroma that is created! Scones are just scrumptious.

Highland Gourmet Scones bake nine decadent flavors fresh in their store every day, and thankfully, they offer a Build Your Own Assortment box so that you can try one of each! Highlands Gourmet Scones ships their product to all fifty states, and internationally to Switzerland and Canada—they have even had people in England order them for family in the US!

The truth is, no tea party (or Wimbledon watch party) is complete without scones! So our friends at Highland Gourmet Scones are extending a special offer to all of you!
