I had considered not posting this week. With so much uncertainty in the world right now―healthcare in the US, Catalonia, Korea, Puerto Rico and more (add anything to the list that's worrying you at the moment)―I began to feel paralyzed. But then I remembered that the best thing for me to do when I am worried is to connect with the people I love. And be creative. Food is my vehicle I have to create something of worth and bring it to others. 

I also remembered that one of the only things we can count on is that things will change. Some changes, like fall in New England, are absolutely welcome.

These Coconut & Brown Sugar Scones are sure to cheer anyone up. A buttery scone filled with the sweetness of brown sugar and the crispy texture of baked coconut will be welcome at any meal. Try them for Sunday breakfast. And make a double batch so you have extra to take on a hike or bring to a friend. Trust me, they won't last long. Enjoy.

I look forward to seeing you in my kitchen, gathering flavors, soon.
