Goodness thats good for you

Sometimes I go to Starbucks in the morning. Not all that often, since I'm rarely ready for work early enough for that. But sometimes, when I am there, they have blueberry scones. Blueberry scones are a weakness of mine... I love them. So yesterday, Keegan and I went to Mollie Stone's to get salads for lunch, and in the way to the checkout is the bakery. I wasn't tempted by the cookies or the doughnuts, but then I saw them... Packages of scones. By a company called "Sconehenge". Now, if you know anything about me you know that I'm into medieval recreation and all its associations. Score one for the scone company. I'm also a total marketing whore. I will buy a product if the company has an interesting name or if the packaging intrigues me. Score two. They had blueberry. Score three, picked up the package and bought scones.

But the best part was this:

Ingredients: unbleached flour, buttermilk, butter, eggs, sugar, baking powder and salt. May also contain fresh or dried fruits or nuts.

Fresh! No preservatives! No ingredients that I can't pronounce or don't know what they are!

Mmmmmmm.

Sounds awesome! I don't think scones are allowed in the midwest. I'll look around though.
