I didn't have any fresh rosemary, so I used dried rosemary instead. It still turned out great!

I found the dough to be a bit too sticky. I had to add more flour to get it to the right consistency.

These scones are amazing! The rosemary and lemon flavors are perfectly balanced, and the texture is light and fluffy. I've made them twice already, and they're a hit with my family and friends.
