I was at two grocery stores today. There shelves were very bare yesterday but they have gotten in shipments of food and now there is bread and fresh meat on the shelves. I bought milk and butter and eggs. .
My Rosemary Focaccio came out well and I delivered it to the neighbor across the street. We kept four or five feet apart as I handed her the bread in its plastic bag. If she hadn't answered the door I was going to leave the bag on the door knob.
My plan was to spend the next two weeks baking and giving away Hot Cross buns but I am thinking of just baking enough for myself and not visiting even at a decent distance, I basically feel fine now but feel the very start of a cold coming on.I missed this.
That's scary. I got the correct answer by guessing.
I'm going to make Rosemary Foccacio as a gift for a neighbor. The hot cross buns turned out well, soft and a little spicy. Now that they are cool, I'm going to frost them.
no pie, but I started on a batch of Hot Cross Buns, mainly based on the recipe in 200th Anniversary Cookbook. I'll let the dough rise overnight and form it into buns tomorrow.
Chocomouse; I wasn't being as public minded as you. I was just thinking of a tiny handwashing station for you and your sister. All you would have to do is bring a gallon of clean water in, and drag a gallon of dirty water outside or to the restrooms after your booth closes.
Here is the article about low tech hand washer mainly for places without running water. What I like about it is that its foot operated and doesn't require putting dirty hands on the unit. Chocomouse could you set up something like this in your booth?

I didn't understand much of that article on Challah. First is Challah a noun or a verb? Part of the article mentions "Taking Challah" as a specific sort of action, not as grabbing a loaf of bread.
Thanks for sharing it. I know people who are Jewish, but few of them bake, but I'll ask them about challah anyway. One friend told me that I should always bake two loaves of Challah on Friday either a) something could be eaten on Saturday or b) One could be given away if anyone needed a loaf.I'd like to make a pie today.
I got this. There is a rant on the internet that "Irish Soda Bread" as eaten in America is nothing like the original Irish Bread. Americans put too many rich ingredients -- butter, eggs, raisins and sugar, into what was originally a very basic plain bread.
I guessed and missed. When I first saw the question I thought it referred to coffee.
I hope the May Sheep and Wool show isn't canceled. Even if you could rig a portable water dispenser for washing your hands there would be a problem cleaning up the dirty water and paper towels afterwards. I did see a cute method for doing that. I'll see if I can find this on the internet.
My martial arts seminar in Jersey City has been canceled, its relatively small perhaps 30-40 people.I love the buns!
I got it.
One of the grocery stores was out of King Arthur Flour on Monday and yesterday. I have some supplies available so I'd be good for a week or two but I am used to be able to buy groceries weekly if not more so I don't really keep track of supplies. I probably have things I should eat up but what would you do with pint jars of peaches canned with brandy? This was a joke 15 years ago, I was reading about Civil War Soldier drinking the brandy and throwing away the peaches. I had at that time friends who reenacted historical events and wanted to see if I could get someone to do this. They knew some Civil War reenactors and pointed out this wouldn't work. Any Union troup historically would eat the peaches as a Southern delicacy. Also almost all the reenactors are men and can only do one thing at a time. So if they started out drinking the brandy they would continue eating until the jar was empty and then remember they were suppose to throw away the peaches.
The stores around here have plenty of toilet paper but sanitizer is in short supply. -
