I'm planning on baking some cookies to take to a neighbor's on New Years eve. Not sure how many kinds, right now I'm soaking some raisins in brandy for oatmeal cookies.

I had a hamburger and roasted sweet potatoes.

Good luck to your granddaughter!

On Sunday I made a pork loin roast. I'll be having the same tonight. I'm going to portion out the rest and freeze it.

Rotisserie chicken, rice and brussels sprouts.

I took a piece of rotisserie chicken out of the freezer and warmed it up in pasta sauce with broccoli and roasted some small red potatoes.

Yesterday I made a batch of sandwich/burger buns.

I took a chicken thigh out of the freezer, chopped up some veggies, opened a box of unsalted chicken broth and made chicken veg soup. Had it with a burger.

That's great, I'm glad everyone enjoyed themselves!

It's very frustrating when important appliances go on strike. I hope the repair is relatively easy.

Shrinkflation has hit the olive oil industry. My last previous purchase was a one liter bottle, today's purchase has shrunk to 750 ml, that's a reduction of 250 ml. Did the price go down to reflect the new size? Nope, I'm pretty sure it's higher ($15.49) than the old price.

I had chicken vegetable soup and a cheeseburger.

I build my pizza on parchment paper. That makes it easy to slide onto the peel. Then I wiggle the entire thing (with the parchment) onto the baking stone. I set a timer for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes I slide the peel under the pizza to hold it in place and used a gloved hand to pull out the parchment. The pizza finishes directly on the stone. This procedure works best with a steel peel.

I had some leftover pork roast that I pulled from the freezer, rice and brussels sprouts.

That's a nice looking pizza, Mike.

Thanks, everyone! Joan, you can have a slice but you better hurry.

BA, I have occasionally par cooked the apples too. I saw an Alton Brown episode where he did that in order to prevent the top crust from doming.

That's a good idea about having a pie thread.

Today I'm making a batch of semolina/rye/wheat rolls.
