So how did these scones come about? Wellllll. Have a seat. A handful of days ago as I was stirring my chicken meatball soup and pondering life's great wonders such as why this jar of gummy vitamins has so many more yellow than red ones (ew, whatevs) and can anybody (no, I mean ANYBODY) truly beat out the terrificness that was Boyz II Men in the mid 90s?, I decide plain old soup would just not suffice.

A fruity, juicy filling on a buttery shortbread crust - the perfect dessert for Spring or Summer! Change up the juices and fruits to suit your tastes, or use what you have! This recipe makes a large pan so it's perfect for a potluck or family barbecue.

Several years ago my oldest daughter was studying in Paris. I went to visit her for a rainy week in November. While she was attending class I wandered around Le Marais. I strolled in and out of every Patissereie on my route. I was particularly drawn to a tender brioche studded with semi-sweet chocolate flakes.

All you need is a popsicle mould and a little bit of patience.

The title of theSouthern Living magazine article from which I adapted these popsicles was "Serve a Cocktail on a Stick" ... ummmmmm, okay ! You really don't need to twist my arm on that one.

You may recall that last week... I judged a little dessert competition. Times are tough. I then came home that night and ate a very unnecessary grilled cheese, but whatever. Details. Not important. Very important? One of the desserts was a gin and tonic cake, but it came right smack in the middle of the other desserts.

Every recipe you need to get your key lime fix!
