For years Lipton was the only tea I knew, and then a couple years ago, Cousin Sandra and I visited a Tea Shop and my life has never been the same! With your Lemon Balm tea, I would probably zest the lemon, first, the peel can be bitter. I love to experiment so you could try it both ways. And as for scones. Scones are so like biscuits. The more gently they are handled the better they are. I just get the batter put together, then turn out and cut. And you say you would bring a lemon cheesecake to my tea party? When should we have one? Let me know!StarDragonfly Herbalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07209791838302749742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965470831139738148.post-17285643149403227972012-01-25T20:09:36.934-08:002012-01-25T20:09:36.934-08:00Great dissertation on tea.

I'll try some lemon peel with it.<br /><br />I am trying to perfect my grandmother's scone recipe without much luck so far. Includes currents and you cook in a iron skillet dusted with flour. Must taste great if you're camping or walking the highlands.<br /><br />If you host a tea party, I'll try cooking them again.Just in case, would bring a lemon cheesecake as well.Fairy Godmother Orchidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200423685804621090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965470831139738148.post-33404321229487699572012-01-25T05:29:45.535-08:002012-01-25T05:29:45.535-08:00Apologies about the lack of recipes!
