Whoever imagined this would be our world. That our nightmares would be filled with fears of no flour, coffee, peanut butter, and toilet paper on the grocery store shelves. But they are. We wake at 3 am wondering if today will be the day we get the flour.
These, of course, are trivial worries when there are people whose family members and friends are out there on the frontline—working in the medical field, stocking our grocery shelves, delivering our mail. Which brings us back to flour. Baking has become a way to share and say, "Thank You!". So, here is a recipe NEAT Blueberry Scones. Enjoy!

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
