I baked up the last of the cranberry-coconut refrigerator cookies I made for the Christmas cookie tray.
We had cheesesteak stuffed peppers, and have a couple left for lunches this week. That's the last of the pepper halves I froze last fall.
Germination! Looks good. When can you start seeds outdoors, or transplant seedlings, in your area? I lived in Georgia for 2 years, but didn't garden back in the 60s. My indoor lettuce and spinach is almost ready to eat, but I'm holding off until it the leaves are bit bigger. But when I run out of store-bought next week, I'll probably start cutting it.
Tonight we had sausages with blueberry pancakes and maple syrup. Perfect for a blustery Nor'easter night, although we have only a dusting of snow.
I made two loaves of buttermilk maple oatmeal bread today. Soft, tender, but not fluffy.
We had fajitas and raw veggies with a spicy dip.

I made a pizza for dinner - pepperoni with the works.
Laughing! I love, love, love chicken. I could eat chicken 5-6 nights a week. "Winner, winner, chicken dinner!" at my house. My husband? Hah! Not so much. He doesn't care for chicken. He is the original "Where's the beef?" spokesperson.
A quick meal tonight -- fish fillets and french fries, all from the freezer and just needing an air-fry. All I had to do was make a salad!
Today I made eclairs for the first time in many years -- all of it from scratch! It took more time than I had planned, but they are delicious!
I made shepherd's pie for our dinner.
I spent most of yesterday shopping in the nearest large shopping area near me, about 2 hours from here. I know this is not a good time to be out and about, but sometimes you just need more than groceries and meds. I was pleasantly surprised. The shops were not busy, not at all crowded until mid-afternoon at that last stop, a small specialty food shop. However, I would estimate masking was 100%. Wonderful. We felt perfectly safe running our errands.
Tonight we had chicken thighs, roasted veggies, and whole kernal corn.
Yesterday I made BakerAunt's version of Maple Buttermilk bread. It was perfect! I didn't need to add flour or water, it rose beautifully, got lots of oven spring, and is soft and moist. We had it for egg salad sandwiches for dinner. Today I decided to make it again, shaping it into 2 smaller loaves to gift, and 6 hot dog/sub buns. Today was a different story! Ur was a wet, sloppy mass. I had to add at least 1/2 cup of bread flour. I had already reviewed the ingredient list after I mixed it, and I'm very sure I didn't mismeasure either the flour or liquids. I usually make a wetter than normal dough, so I wasn't really concerned that the result would not be good bread. And it is good!! I have 2 gorgeous loaves plus the funny looking buns. The flour came out of the same container as yesterday, the weather is the same .... Thanks for your recipe, BakerAunt! It's a winner!
