Last night I made Cornish Hens, they came out a bit dry, they always do. I don't know how to time them or where to stick a thermo probe.

BakerAunt, I think you're lucky only 1/2 Tbs was missing. Most dogs would inhale the whole thing in a flash.

Thank you Joan and Italiancook.

I think about the poor butchers who have to lug those big heavy carcasses to the cutting block. When I was in high school in the late 1960's I worked an after school job at a butcher shop. Seeing those guys carrying a side of beef to the cutting block was enough for me to know what I didn't want to do when I grew up. So now those sides are even larger and heavier.

I bake a loaf of braided bread this afternoon.

Today I made a pork rib roast and roasted potatoes and sweet potatoes. I cut the sweet potatoes a bit smaller then the white, tossed them with avocado oil and roasted them at 400 degrees. They came out great and didn't take too long to cook. I put them in the oven shortly before the pork was done and they finished while the roast was resting.

Roast salmon with spinach and mushrooms.

Today I made a pan of brownies using Ghirardelli's box mix. I subbed milk for the water and doubled it and added a half cup of oats. Alright, that makes it health food, doesn't it?

I have a question, I'm not too experienced with cooking sweet potatoes. I want to cube some in appr 1 inch pieces, along with white potatoes, toss them with oil and roast them together. Am I correct in thinking they will cook at the same rate, both be done at about the same time?

Joan, A few years ago I bought a bag of buckwheat flour from KAF. Eager to make pancakes I carefully followed the directions on the package. While they were on the griddle something didn't look right. I plated them, put on a little bit of butter and some real maple syrup. Tasted flat and the texture was dense. Then I figured it out, I forgot the baking soda.

Stuff happens..........

I am saddened to hear that, Jan. I will keep your mom in my thoughts and prayers.
