The Best Thing I Had In My Mouth - Cranberry-Apricot Scones

The first day after my BluePrint Cleanse, I really thought I was going to stay on the healthy track.  I woke up and had pineapple for breakfast, an apple for a snack, and a salad for lunch.  I was in even on the subway with my friend Anna chatting with her about how now that I can have "bad" things, I have no desire to eat them.  That flew out the window real quick.  Once we got to my place, and I set up a platter of City Bakery treats, homemade scones, and bread with honey and cheese, I had a bit of this and little bit of that, and before I knew it I had sampled a whole cranberry-apricot scone, half of a pretzel croissant, an edge of the coconut and chocolate chip cookies, and bread with cheese and honey.  I was back into the swing of things.  Whoops.  Anyways, the best thing I had in my mouth were the cranberry-apricot scones I made.  This recipe is adapted from the Clinton Street Baking Company Cookbook, and they are sooooo easy.  Seriously, I can get these in the oven in under 4 minutes.  It's that easy.
