At the end of the meal people we'd package up the the leftovers and put them into the fridge.

Every two weeks the fridge would get cleaned out.

Those scones were just as pliable two weeks later as the day she brought them in!
Yikes, what the heck did she do to them? Leave out the cream and leavening and over bake? I am glad you have since experienced the real things!
