        I didn't overbake them, they were very light in color and not hard at all.

            I made The Best Chewy Peanut Butter cookie recipe from the NoviceChef.
            I got 19 big cookies and they stayed soft after baking.

                    I have always used both yeasts the same...I do mix the active dry with water and a little sugar to make sure it's proofed and when the pandemic came I did as some said use less yeast but you had to wait longer on a rise.That's fine with me and I keep my yeast as Mike does in the freezer in a glass jar with tight lid.No more old yeast.

                      No cooking here tonight we went to a local seafood restaurant and had a wonderful shrimp supper.

                      I agree with you Mike on the vaping and marijuana use.

                        I stirred up another batch of sourdough,you know I'm not great with the scale.I dropped more starter than called for but knew I had to add more water before and this time too so it's all mixed up for a overnight rise . Will pan up and bake sometime tomorrow.The good thing about a scale it's less washing as everything is in one bowl.

                            Tonight we had chargrilled chicken breast,green beans and a baked sweet potato.

                            I made a cheese spread with 8 oz.cream cheese, a little onion powder, dash of Worcestershire , a teaspoon of pimentos and about 1/2 cup american cheese and black pepper and it tastes so good.Needed to use the cream cheese so took care of that.

                            Cleaned the coffee pot today and when I was getting it all wiped down I put the carafe on the counter and knocked the dang thing off.Glass shattered everywhere need I say more .So off to Khols to get a new one as the shipping and price of carafe was half as much as new one and I want it tomorrow morning.That glass was everywhere..when I went to cook the chicken tonight I found shards in a griddle I keep by my stove top that was 5 ft. away.

                                  Yeah Mike when I make Brunswick Stew it's hard for me to make a little , I also put 3 qt.containers in the freezer today.My pot is a big one too.

                                  Tonight we had meatloaf patties, macaroni and cheese sliced tomatoes and green butter beans.

                                  Has anyone ever had hamburger meat that would not stay together?I buy 80-20 and it was previously frozen but it would not stay together.I had onion,peppers,oatmeal bread ,egg and seasoning etc.So I made 4 patties but when it baked it still fell apart when you'd stick your fork in it. Oh well we ate it anyway..
