{Year Three Celebration} Grapefruit-Kumquat Scones

grapefruit-kumquat-scones-4
 happy birthday, kumquat!
hard to believe it’s been three years… how does the time go so quickly?
for the second blogoversary(?), i shared with you my chicken saltimbocca recipe from my book. the year before i posted this fancy chocolate cake with kumquat marmalade frosting.
for the third birthday of this blog, i thought is totally fitting to post a pretty little combination of some of my favorites… kumquats (clearly), scones (my loveaffair with scones is no secret), and grapefruit (one of my newest flavor obsessions).
i have noticed that in these past celebratory posts, i gush and gush about how grateful i am. but it is true. i am.
for the relationships, opportunities, sounding board, and creative outlet this little space has brought into my life, i am thankful. so thank you for reading, reaching out, dropping by.
here’s to another year, in anticipation of more to be grateful for.
