Jalapeno Cheddar Scones



Summer is officially here and the city is a-buzzing. After a long, cold winter, everyone comes out of hibernation and each weekend, streets are shut down for the many festivals happening around the city. While I'm sure this aggravates motorists to no end, summer festivals are one of the reasons why I love Toronto.



The past month has been filled with baseball games and bike rides and strolls along the beach. The farmers' markets are in full swing and my dragon boat team's season has started. Life has been busy but in the best, possible (if exhausting) way.



I also had the pleasure of trekking out to Prince Edward County to spend the day at the Great Canadian Cheese Festival, sampling on local wine and cheese. I purchased two blocks of cheese, a lovely smoked cheese from La Fromagerie Blackburn and the award-winning Louis d'Or from La Fromagerie du Presbytère.
