Tea Time Tuesday Author Debra Sennenfelder Shares Her Tea Pot Collection And A Recipe

 

Tea Time Tuesday 

Welcome Author Debra Sennefelder 

Fall is in the air  . . .

. . .  I’m looking forward to cozying up on the sofa at night with a book and my Shih Tzu, Connie 

There’s something special about a steaming hot mug of tea and the ritual around it. I do drink coffee, but when I do, I’ll be checking emails in the morning or watching the news while writing up a to-do list.  

When it comes to tea, I actually take a few moments to savor it. I don’t have a large collection of teapots, only three. They are very special to me. 

The thatched roof teapot was given to me from my mother-in-law. 

 The short, round one with shamrocks on it came from my Aunt Bridie. 

The Blue Willow teapot is one I purchased over thirty-years ago after I got married. 

 And that’s when I started baking scones and I’m thrilled to be sharing my favorite scone recipe with you today.

White Chocolate Chip Scones

Light and sweet, these scones are perfect for breakfast or a mid-day snack.

Ingredients

1 egg (slightly beaten)

Buttermilk

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup sugar

2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

6 tablespoons butter

1/2 cup white chocolate chips

1/2 cup raisins

Instructions

Place egg in a liquid measuring cup. Add enough buttermilk to equal 1 cup, set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in raisins and white chocolate chips. Add milk and egg mixture. Stir until dough clings together.

Drop dough, use 1/4 cup measure, onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

SLEUTHING IN STILETTOS blurb:

Kelly Quinn, owner of a high-end consignment shop, is a booster for her Long Island town’s small businesses—but now a store owner’s murder has brought big trouble . . .

Locals in Lucky Cove seem to harbor hostility toward Miranda Farrell, proprietor of a new shoe store. Nevertheless, Kelly invites her along to a Chamber of Commerce meeting. But soon afterward, Miranda’s body is found in her shop, with Kelly’s uncle—who’s had multiple public arguments with her—standing nearby. Could her uncle really have committed murder over a business dispute? Or is Miranda’s death related to her late husband’s long-ago embezzlement case?

Kelly feels compelled to investigate, despite her detective boyfriend’s objections—not to mention her commitment to promoting Small Business Saturday. But her effort to pump up sales may fall flat. After her presentation to the committee is sabotaged, the Chamber gives her the boot—and tongues start wagging. Now she has to do some fancy footwork to find the killer . . .
