Scones of Horror

I thought scones were easy to cook. I was wrong. Well, maybe they are easy to cook. I don't know. What I do know so far, is that I can't cook them.

I didn't photograph my first effort — I wish I had because the scones were really not beautiful, and it's hard to describe how indescribably ugly they were. I followed the recipe as best I could, however being asked to add 'enough milk as needed' is a little vague. My scones looked a lot like crumbly misshapen eggs, with measles. I have no idea what happened to make small brown spots appear all over the scones. They looked diseased. 

Second effort? Scone pancakes. Yes.

For my third effort, I'm just going to kidnap someone from my local branch of the Country Women's Association and make her cook my scones for me.  

Edit: I just took a photo of my second effort, it seems they also took on the horribly diseased appearance of their predecessors.
