Today I made two loaves of oatmeal-whole wheat sandwich bread and 8 rolls. I sprayed them with water and dipped/rolled the shaped dough in The Works bread topping which I bought yesterday at KAF. We ate 2 of the rolls with our pasta dinner, and they are excellent. Soon, I will try the topping on focaccia. It has some seeds and is a bit spicy, but not hot or overpowering

The sauce was a meal we had in December, with extra put into the freezer for busy days like today.

I filled a quart mason jar with some of the leftovers to take to Maine this week, and froze the rest for future meals.

I also made egg salad for sandwiches for dinner. The price of eggs has gone up significantly in the past few weeks; today they were 4.99 a dozen for large eggs.
I also keep a good supply of BRM flours and grains on hand for my baking needs. I like that I can find a good selection of so many of the products in most grocery stores.

I made lemon muffins, using the new-to-me Lemon Crumbles. I used my own basic muffin recipe, and stirred in about a cup of crumbles plus a tablespoon of my favorite Lemon Juice Powder. The crumbles are good, more sweet than tart, so I don't care for the muffins as much as I love them made with 3 tablespoons of the tart juice powder. I think adding some pecans would add a lot to the flavor. And KAF has a recipe for lemon streusel (I think it is part of a lemon something recipe) which I often put on top of muffins but might be good swirled through the batter in the tins. I now have some good excuses for future experimenting!

We got not even one snowflake out of the snow storm, so had planned to cook the chicken on the grill. However, my husband discovered the dials on the grill set to "high" and an empty propane tank, so I cooked the chicken on the stove.
I made arepas today. They are not very pretty, but taste excellent. I chopped up 1 cup of whole kernel corn (canned, drained) to add to the batter; and I think this adds a lot to the flavor, although fresh would be even better. After they were cooked on the griddle, I put shredded mozzarella between two of them for lunch.

I'm sorry to learn Cass has passed. I do hope his last days were peacful and full of wonderful memories of his life in various kitchens. He was a wealth of information and so generous with helping us when we needed it.
We had kielbase with peppers and onions on fresh burger buns - we haven't had these for ages.
I made burger buns today. I used 1 cup of bread flower and 3 cups of AP. They rose higher than any I've made for 10 years!
I made a big pot of venison stew for my husband to take to a pot luck, but held back a bowl for my dinner, and more for our dinner tomorrow night.
We had shrimp alfredo on farfalle with broccoli.
