        I have apple-cinnamon muffins almost ready for the oven. I used my usual muffin recipe, adding two chopped apples. I put one scoop of batter into each muffin tin, then added about a teaspoon of home-made cinnamon schmear, and topped that with another scoop of the apple batter. I swirled it with knife, and sprinkled with demerara sugar. I think I won't wait until breakfast to eat one!

          Oh yes, Skeptic! and looking forward to chatting with you again. We will be there, same spot, A12 in the Main Exhibition Hall. We just returned from teaching a dyeing workshop near Detroit and need to partially unload and reload the van and then head for Maryland next week. The weather forecast looks great! See you then!

              I made chocolate chip oatmeal cookies today. Too bad it makes only 4 dozen. 😒

                Our dinner tonight was meatloaf, baked potato, and roasted brussels sprouts.

                  I had leftover chicken stir fry and will probably have the rest of it tomorrow night, as I am leaving Wednesday for a week in Ohio and Michigan. My husband had a tooth pulled late this afternoon, so he had ice cream with chocolate sauce!

                    I made two loaves of maple oatmeal whole wheat bread.

                      We had a stir fry of leftover veggies on glass noodles, with a side of roasted brussels sprouts.

                        Dinner tonight was brats with sauteed red peppers and onions on buns I made the other day.

                          Glad to know your road(s) is not washed out and you can get around, Joan. Your dinners are always sounding good to me! I had a dish of Greek yogurt with frozen blueberries stirred in.

                            Tonight I cooked a large chicken breast, sliced in half horizontally, with roasted green beans and mashed squashed from the freezer. I plan to make chicken salad with the leftover breast meat.

                              I'm so glad you got to see the eclipse, Mike and BakerAunt. It was terrific. We had about 98+% totality, but that wasn't much different from one I saw quite a few years ago. Best of all, it was a gorgeous, sunny, warm, spring day and I did not have to leave my deck to refill my margarita glass. Many visitors to our state had to drive 12 or more hours to make the usual 2-hour drive home.

                                We did not lose power in any of the three storms, each of which dropped a foot of snow, or more on us. We live about a mile from a major electrical station, so if there is power outage, we are about the first to get repaired. I hope you do get to see at least some of the eclipse, BakerAunt. I suspect your viewing might be similar to ours -- we live at the 98+% range of total eclipse. Traffic is already impacting travel around here,and worse is expected. We have experience - the Phish concert in a farmer's field happened north of us, years ago. I'm not leaving my house! I'll be watching from my deck.

                                Today I made sauce from last summer's tomatoes, and we had some on pasta and some went into the freezer. I've been baking focaccia to use for ham sandwiches to use up the Easter ham. I've been slowed down by some major vision issues for the last couple of weeks. I'm blind in one eye, due to my stroke 7 years ago, but I lost vision in my good eye. After several visits to some physicians, my retina specialist diagnosed and treated it, and I am now back to normal. But it was scary.

                                  I made two loaves of pumpernickel bread, ready for leftover ham!
