Pecan Store May 21st, 2010

TGIF!  I hope you all have great weekend plans to look forward to. My weekend will be full of errand running, but I have every intention of allowing myself some downtime. Since the days have become hot, I have made it a point to wake up early on Saturday mornings to enjoy the cooler temperatures.  I am a big coffee fan; seriously, I think about my first cup as soon as I wake up. I’ve become a big fan of the Butter Pecan Arbuckles’ coffee that the Pecan Store sells, so I usually make it a part of my morning routine.  My early mornings on the patio consist of my laptop so I can read the news, a steaming cup of hot java and an easy breakfast. Sometimes I have a wheat bagel, sometimes I have cereal. But lately I have been enjoying the new Buttermilk Scones the Pecan Store has just debuted. They are from the Adobe Ross Inn, located in Tucson, and the scones are divine! The mix is simple as all it requires is six tablespoons of cold butter and warm water. If you baked the scones as is, you’re only consuming 99 calories a serving! However, the great thing about the mix is that it comes with ideas of other items you can add to take your scones over the top! My favorite combination is blueberries and pecans; it’s amazing! Plus, you can pair the scones with a tasty Raspberry Pecan or Blackberry Pecan preserve from the Pecan Store or spread on some Pecan Honey Butter for an extra hint of sweetness. Now doesn’t that sound like the perfect way to welcome the day?
