Holmes_and_Watson Posted 4 July, 2022 Share Posted 4 July, 2022 Jam first by tradition. However, I think it tastes better the other way. Although I fear social pariah status if suggesting that in a local cafe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 4 July, 2022 Share Posted 4 July, 2022 Fruit scones, with little orange bits in, are my faves. Only a little of anything with those as are so nice. What flavour jam with the scone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
