Friday Feast | Eve Brannigan's Eggnog Scones

Welcome to Friday Feast in the Tavern! Regardless what's happening all around us, I'm celebrating a festive, holiday month. I hope you'll be joining me for the remainder of the year. I have a couple guest authors visiting this month and sharing recipes as well.

This scone recipe was created by me many years ago. My love of eggnog is great and I was thrilled to find some in mid-October. I have a splash in my morning coffee each day. Yet these scones have become a tradition around the holidays. ...

Friday Feast | Please Pass the Butter

Welcome to Friday Feast and the week before Thanksgiving. Our Thanksgiving will be a simple meal at home, but I can tell you there will be bread--bread stuffing and rolls.

This quote from Mother Teresa has always been a favorite of mine. My love for bread is endless--from rolls, brioche buns, biscuits, and savory scones. I'm definitely not picky either. Give me sourdough, wheat, rye, and/or pumpernickel warm from the oven, smeared with creamy butter. Delicious and pure bliss for me.
