TWD: Buttermilk Scones

These blew me away.  Seriously.  I only knew scones as sad dry pucks of dough that needed good coffee or tea to . After the kids and I made the Irish soda bread and loved it, I should have had a clue but I was still so surprised. These came out so light and flaky and we loved the lemon peel. Only one revision I would make next time would be to add less sugar in the dough. While I didn't think they were overly sweet my husband thought they were just slightly so. Blueberries would be extraordinary in these!
