Breakfast this morning

Breakfast this morning
Breakfast this morning was a compote of gingered apricots, whole wheat buttermilk biscuits, soft-cooked egg, orange juice, and Fortnum & Mason's Royal Blend tea.  I baked the biscuits on a baking stone and the finish was worth noting.  The crust was nicely crunchy while the biscuit was light and chewy.  A good start to the day!
