Blueberry season in East Texas is my favorite. Those fresh blueberries combined with a sprig of Rosemary from our garden creates a little bit of heaven for our Sunday Brunch.

We have huge rosemary bushes and we have more rosemary than we know what to do with! We stuff our chickens (sourced from a local farm) with fresh rosemary before roasting. We add rosemary to our famous Breakfast Potatoes and stir a little in to our Chicken and Veggie Soup. Rosemary adds a unique flavor, plus it’s anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and can reduce stress.

Our guests usually can’t get enough of these scones. This recipe is simple and the result is delicious!
