        There is a croissant with chocolate filling in the kaf whole wheat baking cookbook. I guess if all else fails, you can use that.

            This is the first time I've ordered from schwans. Hamburgers, chicken cordon bleu, crab cakes, and some frozen veggies which are impossible to find at the grocery store. Got a catlg in the mail and figured, what the heck, give them a try. I didn't think the prices were that high. Saved me a trip to the store!

              Making yogurt now. Angus burgers with cheddar and bacon for dinner. First time trying them from Schwans. Anyone hear of them?

                      Italian cook, I'm with you about baking for people. I would bring goodies to the library alot but they're closed and I don't feel comfortable giving stuff to the neighbors, either. That's why I've been doing a little small batch baking or freezing some of the cookie dough from a regular batch. I'm going through baking withdrawal!
                      As far as remembering names, Bakeraunt, you're right. Lol

                        I went to stopnshop this morning since I haven't shopped in a month (and I don't want to go for another month!!). Wearing that mask is suffocating and fogs up my glasses, but gotta wear it. I went in and over to the lunch meat display and a woman there asked if she was in my way. I said no, no, you're fine, thanks. Then she said 'I know you. How are you!?'. I said 'great. How r u?!'. I have no idea who she was. We all look like bandits. Lol. I worked 6 yrs at our town library so I see a lot of patrons in town and know who most of them are even with the mask on. But this nice lady, no idea. It's a strange new world.

                          Thanks S_Wirth and Joan!! I'm not that enthused with no knead bread but those 2 come out good and are the only no kneads I make.

                            Went to stopnshop this morning and they had blueberries buy 1 get 1 free. Made Canterbury blueberry muffins. I cut out the recipe years and years ago from Family Circle magazine. Swirth was good enough to move the recipe here from the kaf site. Thanks, Swirth!

                                Bakers authority website has saf instant yeast in stock but I bet the shipping is a killer. My niece-in-law ordered a 50 lb bag of flour from them a couple weeks ago because she couldn't find any where she lives in NJ. Said the shipping was high. She was going to split the 50 lbs with her mom. Guess it depends how desperate you are!

                                  My mother always made Christmas stollen using yeast cakes. It definitely makes the texture different than dry yeast. I was finally able to find fresh cake yeast this year at a market that has specialty items and they didn't have much of it. I made stollen with dry and fresh yeast and the stollen made with fresh yeast was better. There's just something about it -- a little moister, springier and a bit of a cakelike texture.
