I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my scones turned out dry and crumbly. I'll have to try again.

These scones were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of scones, but I have to admit that these were pretty good. They were light and fluffy, and the blueberry flavor was just right.
