Marijuana recipes — SCONES! Gone are the days of dry, bland scones that were simply carriers for butter or jam. These scones are moist and full of flavor, and the poppy seeds provide a wonderful bit of crunch. They are perfect for breakfast, or with a cup of tea for an afternoon snack. Just check your teeth for seeds in the mirror afterward!
