I had a turkey and salami sandwich, Diane had a salad with tuna fish.
My wife complains that some of the handicap curb cuts, and especially the ramps, are too sloped, and I often have to steady her when she goes up or down one.
Hope your injuries are only short term ones.
I never have whey on hand, though I think I have whey powder somewhere.
We had our pork chops tonight rather than on Easter, and I still haven't made deviled eggs from the eggs I hard-boiled on Saturday. A long-postponed system upgrade got in the way.
My wife doesn't like lamb, so we're doing smoked pork chops for supper.
Took longer due to some supply issues but I finally got my tomatoes started indoors under the lights, I started 40 pots worth, will probably plant about 32 of them.
We both had sandwiches tonight, with some fresh Hot Cross Buns.
The third batch of Hot Cross Buns is in the oven. (I made one last night.) We took the 4 boxes of rolls (8 each) from last night to Diane's office today and 6 or 7 of the ones I made today will go to neighbors and friends. We had to eat one set, because it fell apart coming out of the pan. (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.)
I tinkered with the icing recipe a bit, adding some Lyle's Golden Syrup. Came out great, maybe too good.
For this cake I use unbleached AP flour.
I picked a tomato and we had tomato and salami sandwiches, plus a salad.
Giving them away around Easter is probably more of a midwest tradition, my grandmother did it for years.
I think they're more popular in England, where they're available year round.
For the most part, salt is salt. This does not have iodine in it, or anything added to prevent clumping, but neither does kosher salt, and this 'bread salt' is about $13 a pound. Nope.
There are people who claim they can tell the difference between bread made with iodized salt and bread made with non-iodized salt. I'm not one of them.
I wound up making two pizza with the dough I made, one had about 240 grams of dough and the other had about 170, so next time I think I'll split it into 2 balls of about 205 each.
It made a pretty good thin crust pizza. We used to get thin crust pizza when we lived in Evanston that was by far our favorite pizza ever. Not sure what their secret was, but I think this was closer to it than any I've made before.
The second one was just sauce, mushrooms and cheese. Next time I think I'll try using olive oil instead of canola and fresh mushrooms. I really need a source for whole milk mozzarella though. Sams used to carry it, their website says their Omaha store has it, I will be up that way in May for a HS graduation party, I may stop in to see if the website is right.
I'm doing a pizza for supper, trying out a new thin-crust dough recipe.
They had 80% ground beef on sale for $3.99/pound, short dated chubs, so I got two and made another meatloaf.
I call this one a Christmas Tree Meatloaf.
