I made spaghetti with meat sauce and broccoli.
Me three.
With the weather being what it has been, mostly on the cooler side, I was not paying attention to the tomato calendar. I usually order my tomato and herb plants from Burpee. I went to their web site Friday and saw almost all the tomato and herb plants are gone. I placed an order for 1 tomato and 2 peppers and a few herbs. I'm disappointed that I waited so long. I was talking to a neighbor and he told me about someone local who grows tomato plants for sale, $6 a plant and $2 for delivery. I took a look at what he offers and sent him an email to place an order. I'm hoping I'm not too late with him, either.
I guessed right.
I was able to get a 2 pound bag of King Arthur AP flour and a 5 pound bag of organic white whole wheat from Whole Foods today. Looks like flour is starting to trickle in to the supply line. I'll be happy when KAF has all their flours on the website, then I'll know things are returning to normal.
I made a hamburger (one of Nature's perfect food), a baked sweet potato and broccoli,
On Saturday I made my usual bun recipe but this time I decreased the yeast from 7 grams to 4. It took about 30 minutes more on both the first and second rise and I didn't get as much oven spring. But they had a real pleasant aroma (better than usual) when they were baking and the taste and texture is very good. I think this is the way I'll be doing them from now on.
I had no idea but I guessed correctly.
I made a boneless pork chop, roasted sweet potato and cauliflower.
I had no idea so I cheated and looked it up. If I had to guess I would have got it wrong.
I made honey glazed Salmon. ATK did this in one of their shows. It came out pretty good.
I made buckwheat buttermilk pancakes for breakfast. I recently got a small bag of self rising Whitelily flour, so I mixed equal parts of that with the buckwheat and an equal amount of rolled oats. They came out light and fluffy and not dry. Too often my buckwheat cakes come out dry but these were just right.
I let my preference of berries cloud my judgment and missed it.
When I take a pic with my iphone, I email it to myself, open it on my laptop and save the pic in my picture library. Then I can edit it (if I didn't already do so on the phone) and post it here. Once you do it a couple of times you will have the hang of it, it's really not hard to do.
I had Italian sausage which I cooked in a fry pan with some onion, then made a gravy, had it with barley and cauliflower and carrots. It was pretty good.
