Oh Marie this was a joy to watch!
To put a face and a voice to someone I have been reading for years had me grinning from ear to ear.
Please, please do not feel you have to change any part of you, I think for your first venture into videos this was very clear and concise, it really made me want to follow along.
Thankyou for pushing your boundary’s it is pure joy to see you successfully trying something you felt unattainable.
As long as you keep posting we’ll all keep watching ❤🙏😇

I enjoy scones so much, but never have been brave enough to make them from scratch - I will be trying this for sure! Thanks for showing all the steps - have a wonderful day!

Marie, keep these videos coming! Even though I have used your cookbook to make these, I learned new things from the video. It is a learning curve but you are doing a fantastic job. So enjoyable to cook with you.

It’s so lovely to hear you in person, I’ve followed you for ages on your blog . I love your recipes they always turn out beautifully. I was sorry that you left the UK, you are a such a good cook . Xx

Excellent job doing this tutorial!! One thing that came to me was this - I was always taught that people in Devon put the cream on first, then the jam; and people in Cornwall would put the jam first, and then the cream. Hence my statement to myself, every time I enjoy a "cream tea" is, Devon down, to remind myself to put the cream on first!!! Just a little chuckle for you!! Keep the videos coming, you're doing a great job!

Marie, nice to see you! The scones look great, I will try them this weekend. I studied in the UK many years ago and I enjoyed tea time a lot. Thank you for sharing this. Love from México.

Love your YouTube ! Good job and you look just fine ! I am a Canadian by birth but live in the states since marrying a
Yankee. My Mum taught me how to make “tea biscuits “ and she would knead the dough and roll it out with a rolling pin. Your demonstration was informative and I will use your technique and instructions next time I bake them .
Thanks Marie Happy that your tech problems are ironed out.

Ooh these scones look delicious! My grandmother always told me that I had hot hands and she despaired of my scone and pastry making 😂 You have inspired me to try again, though. Thanks Marie!

[lucyrodriguez]

[lindaharvey]

Thank you! Your instructions were really clear and I can't wait to try my hand at these!

Hi, Marie! I've followed your blog and on Facebook for years. So wonderful to subscribe to your new YouTube channel. You look lovely! It will get easier as you get more used to it. Love all your videos you've posted so far. Thank you for doing this!

I really enjoy seeing the process of making a recipe, and you do a wonderful job. Keep them coming even though your blog is up and running.

Yummy mom those look so good. I wish I can have one. You have always been a good cook. Love you.

[SnowFlye-ye]

This looks delicious and not hard to do! I've made many loaves of bread & buns but never tried to make scones. Now I will! Love clotted cream.

[margarettt]

Lovely to see your smiling face, I like the way you look just as you are, warm and friendly. I watched your video after dinner, I don't eat anything after dinner, so it has been torture... I'll be trying your scone recipe in the morning! I will have to watch your videos in the mornings, when I know I'll have a chance to try your recipes, and eat them right away!

[MaryWalker-ji]

So so happy to see you on YouTube. You are doing great!

[PatriciaLepine-omzw]

Yum I am going to try my freind christine watches you and gave me your scones you seem so kind
Well I'm gray and proud of it !

[dembree]

Looks very yummy...and you have made it so simple I think even a new cook could be successful and you encourage even this old cook to maybe give scones another try...have made some in the past that were ok...but everything we eat has to be glutenfree, so it can be a matter of figuring out just which flours will product whatever you are aiming for. Or close to it. Nothing truly takes the place of wheat, but you can get close enough at times. Thanks for sharing...and keep them coming please!!
