Nutmeg

Nutmeg, is a somewhat neglected spice i think.

We had a potluck at work Monday and i took some Cinnamon scones, quick and easy to make on Sunday night. Everyone thought they were great. i even got them iced. my roommate was looking at them a bit, so i thought i would make some more just for us to eat. But just for shits and giggles I giggles i thought i would add some nutmeg. i just sprinkled it. perhaps it was too much , cause while they were baking all i could smell was the nutmeg. but dam they tasted really good, in fact i sit here and eat and type. Just a dab of butter on them, for i like scones hot out of the oven. What sort of jam goes with Cinnamon and nutmeg? dammed if I know.

So just a thought for anyone who wants to try something different.
