Looks beautiful Len. I hope it tastes as good as it looks!!

I also stay in as long as it lets me, but I don't always get logged back in right away. So this week, for example, I was logged out and didn't have time to log back in to comment.

No baking this week, but I keep thinking about it. I've loved the discussion about rye bread - Len, yours looks delicious. Dachshundlady has a recipe from allrecipes I want to try. I can post the link later if anyone is interested.

So far this week I've made the sausage sheet pan dinner, salmon patties and turkey sandwiches with Brie and cranberry sauce on English muffins. I intend to try out my new crockpot tomorrow.

If I didn't get them at work, I wouldn't have them either ?

Bronx, I think dill rye means that dill (the herb) is actually added to the dough, sort of like dill havarti.

I made the pain au chocolate bread pudding again - there were leftover croissants at work and I figured I didn't want to see them go to waste. This time I went back to my original amounts of milk and cream and was much happier than when I tried to adapt to some of the comments. It is delicious ?

We actually had cold temperatures this week, down in the 30s and 40s so yesterday I tried a slow cooker version of broccoli cheddar soup. Definitely OK, but not a version I'd make again.

Baker Aunt, over 30 years I had 2 gas stoves. The first one was a budget purchase. I really loved my second one - I think it was a Maytag and it had two ovens, a smaller one on top and the bottom one was big enough for anything. I was using that oven when I really started baking and I've had trouble adjusting to every electric oven I've used since. Just thought this information might be helpful.

Home Run Inn pizza is being advertised at my local Harris Teeter this week. I'd not heard of it until you all talked about it here

I made Chicken Marbella (my version) for a dinner party last night. This time I marinated it for 48 hours - usually 24. It was the best one I've made!

Last week I made another batch of cauliflower bread sticks (or pizza crust - same thing). This time it was too dry. I have some ideas for fixing it - will keep trying. I also made a crockpot lo Menn that was quite good, but the leftovers didn't hold up, so next time we'll keep the noodles separate and serve the lo mein mixture over them.

And an avocado chicken salad with no mayo to use as a filling for tortilla roll ups. I worked both in the roll ups and as a salad alone

I put my comments about the Gooey Caramel Stuffed Brownies in the Cookie Ideas thread by mistake. Since there were already "likes" attached I didn't want to move it here. But anyway that's what I've baked (so far) this week

Yesterday, I made a recipe for Gooey Caramel Stuffed Brownies and I followed the recipe exactly. The balance of caramel to chocolate was great. My caramel layer didn't look as thick as the photo, but it was the brownie mix that disappointed. The flavor was good, but they were dry and sort of dense. Next time I will make my favorite KAF brownies and add the caramel layer to those.

If Baker Aunt hadn't mentioned it, I was going to say biscotti. Their intended purpose is dunking ?? I also like cranberry pistachio and I think Mrs Cindy's lemon almond biscotti are posted here. If not, I'll try to get it posted.

Luvpyrpom,
I'm so jealous you have freezers (plural)!!! I have a side by side in my rental and the freezer is right next to the wall and I can't open the door all the way so we don't even have full access to that ☹️
