February 4, 2011 new recipe


Friday, February 4 was a hard day. After being grateful that Mike could come home with us after his head injury, he had a seizure in the middle of the night. He went by ambulance to the Granby Emergency Center, and then was moved to St Anthony Hospital Central in Denver. The good news is that he did not need to have any surgery, but the hard part is that he has a longer recovery ahead of him than we had hoped.

Carl and Melissa came back to the house after the ambulance left to get everything together to go to St Anthony's. Since I had already gotten all the ingredients together to make scones for breakfast, I made them before they left--Meyer Lemon and Dried Blueberry Scones from Epicurious.com. I used grated Buddha's Hand instead of lemon zest. Buddha's Hand is a type of citron, so it is a citrus fruit with a fabulous lemony flavor in the zest. Unlike lemon, it has almost no pulp--it is almost all zest. The scones were very tasty, and a nice little bit of comfort in a stressful day.
