Golly Gosh, keep your posture posh

Apart from our daily grind, isn’t it? If you ever catch yourself sitting hunched over your laptop with your phone jammed between your chin and neck all day long, you’re definitely in need of some postural adjustments. 

So click on the video below for these easy “deskercises”. Your aching back will say thank you. And who knows, you just might find yourself walking regally like Meghan Markle (just hold back on the royal wave, will ya?).

Right Royal Recipe: Scones

You might think scones are “posh posh”, but they’re surprisingly easy to bake and oh-so-satisfying! They’re perfect with an afternoon cuppa to beat the winter chills. The only question is: do you spread your jam first and then your cream, or the other way around? 

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2&1/2 cups self-raising flour
  • 50g cold unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup milk 
  • 300mL thickened cream
  • Strawberry jam 

METHOD: 

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. 
  2. Put the flour, salt, sugar and butter into a large mixing bowl. Rub the butter into the flour using your fingertips. Mix until it resembles breadcrumbs. 
  3. Now make a well in the centre and add the milk. Stir with a spatula or blunt knife until it just comes together. Do not over mix! 
  4. Put the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it just a little. The less you knead the dough, the lighter and more crumbly your scones will be. 
  5. Roll dough to a 2-3cm thickness. With a 6cm round cookie cutter (or even the rim of a glass), cut out circles from the dough until all the dough has been used up. 
  6. Place them slightly apart on the lined baking sheet. Brush the tops of each scone with extra milk. 
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden. Cool on a wire rack. Serve with lashings of cream and strawberry jam. Enjoy!
