Those rolls sound really good, Skeptic. And I have sampled some of your baking, so I know they are tasty!

I made a dozen cinnamon buns today, which I will cover with a cream cheese frosting for dinner tomorrow night.

We had leftovers tonight - cleaning out the fridge to make room for the Christmas ham and sides. We'll have 14 for dinner Christmas Eve, including our 4 week old grand-daughter. It will be my first time to see her -- so excited!

I mixed the dough for Lemon Coconut White Chocolate Chip cookies. I'll scoop and either bake or freeze them tomorrow.

Dinner tonight was pan fried liver, onions, and potatoes, with a green salad.

Pizza last night - with sweet Italian sausage, onions, sweet red peppers, mushrooms, and black olives, plus cheddar and mozzarella.

We had ham, cheese, sweet red pepper, and onion omelets, with freshly made English muffins.

That's a good deal, Joan. My grocery store has had KAF all-purpose flour at 3.99 for 5 lbs for a couple of weeks now. But last week I bought 50 lbs of Sir Lancelot, the commercial size, at the KABC store for $37.46, which was 20% off, on sale. What breaks my budget is the 2 or 3 lb bags of Super 10 or Harvest Grains or Pumpernickel for $14.95. I've been making Christmas cookies and do not want to use the regenerative whole wheat that I recently bought in those, but am anxious to try it.

If anyone is interested in a road trip -- KAF usually has a 20% off "friends and family" sale with 20% off most everything (except appliances, gift cards, and a couple more things) shortly before Easter. We could all meet for lunch in the Cafe. Their sandwiches are superb - on their own bread, of course, and amply filled with turkey, cheese, lettuce, your choices of course.

We had spaghetti and rye rolls from the freezer.

I baked several of the scooped and chilling molasses-ginger dough; my husband has not had cookies for a couple of weeks. You could send your excess eggs to me, navlys! Large white eggs are now about $5.00 a dozen here. Eggnog? Pavlova? Meringue?

Today I made mushroom soup. My grocery store was out of the Better Than Boullion without salt/low salt, so the soup really turned out too salty.

I had leftover bibimbap and roasted squash cubes.

I made a rum cake for my husband to take to a meeting tomorrow night. I still need to poke holes in the top with a toothpick and drizzle a glaze of butter, sugar, and rum over it. I also mixed molasses-ginger cookies for the Christmas Eve cookie tray. They have been chilling in the fridge, so tomorrow I will scoop and freeze the dough until that day.

We had pork chops and a broccoli-cheese-pasta dish.

[chocomouse]

Our dinner was bibambap, served on glass noodles. There is enough leftover for my lunch today.

I made 6 small pans of cranberry-orange bread to give as gifts this season. I used some of the orange peels I candied and chopped and fresh cranberies.
