Blueberry Yogurt Scones

I found this recipe on a blog I follow, For the Love of Cooking. I changed the recipe a bit and I love how they turned out. These are a great breakfast treat!

Scones:

1 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon baking powder

2 tablespoons sugar

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into chunks

1/2 cup non-fat vanilla yogurt

1/3 cup milk

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wisk all dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Fold in yogurt and milk just until combined. Do not over work dough. Grease and flour a baking sheet. Form dough into a rectangle and make horizontal, vertical, and 2 diagonal cuts. Bake 15-20 minutes.

Lemon drizzle:

2 cups powdered sugar

1/2 cup lemon juice

1 lemon, zest finely grated

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

Wisk all ingredients together in a microvawable bowl. Cook in microwave for 30 seconds. Wisk again until smooth and drizzle over each scone. Enjoy!

Breakfast

Today Jaiden decided to invite a few of his friends to breakfast. I asked him to get in his seat and he ran straight to his room. Moments later he had all of the above on top of his tray. I tried to move his elephant and giraffe off to give him more room but he wasn't having any of it. So, in order to get "skinny bones" to eat, I organized his animals and basketballs so that his plate would fit right in the middle.
Speaking of animals... This is a funny story. So, last night we had to stop downtown for a minute so Dal could help his buddy. We took Jaiden in to say hello to a few friends. Dal took him in to the party and they just happened to have a guy with a snake there. It was a circus party. The guy held the snake in front of him so Jaiden could feel it. Jaiden screamed, "Nope..nope!" He wanted nothing to do with it. Dal came out with him and we got into the car. Immediately Jaiden piped up, "I touch the snake!" "No you didn't," Dal snapped back. I had no clue what had happened. "I touch the snake!" Every five minutes, the whole way home, he would tell us what he didn't do. We just laughed because he acted like he was so cool. He tried to trick me but, thanks to Dal, I got the true story.

Short sentences...

Jaiden is almost two and has been talking pretty good for a while. We are so excited to start posting our favorite Jaiden quotes. Thanks to cousin "Jacers," we now want to start the weekly ritual. It has been fun watching Jaiden grow and develop. He makes us laugh constantly.

This week:

This is more like every morning. Jaiden loves to help give his fish, Herbert, "nums." After, he gets real close to the opening of the tank and sweetly says, "Hey fish. How doin'?"

The other day Dal was sitting on our bed. Jaiden walked in almost naked and said, "Hey Bob."

We were a little confused to where Bob came from.

My favorite was when I was getting Jaiden ready for bed one night. We said prayers, then I told him that I loved him and to have a good night. He looked at me with a sleepy cheeser and said, "I lub you mom. Night, night." I got close and said, "I love you more." That's when he put his hand on my mouth and said, "Bye, bye."
