It's getting to be a bit more chilly in my part of the world. That means that it is stew weather. Stew is such a boring thing to eat though, you might say. Want to add a new piece of flair to your stew to make it unique and better than most other stews that the neighbors are eating, unless your neighbors are Swedes that is. Today's recipe is for Klimp. What is Klimp? That sounds gross, you might say. Well, Klimp is nothing more than dumplings made to be put into stew. It's a Swedish recipe and quite tasty. So, here you go.

Scones
