You're not fooling me with that fancy talk. I know for a fact you're eating while leaning over a sink. :sneaky2:Quote:

I was picturing something else and it was scary.
Baking bread. Right now I have a savory garlic cheese bread that I also through in a bunch of green spices rising. Later I plan to make a batch or two of cinnamon raisin bread.
You mean, you wore a belt buckle pistol and went to jail for having a concealed weapon? LOLQuote:

Since her kitchen, I have ate it leaven and unleavened. I have boiled and steamed the product, nothing came close. Everything was flower, no corn. She had a card up her sleeve, I'm close.

The corn was self rising, I adjusted windage on the soda to suit. Stage left, the pig is defrosting. Stage right, the BM is on ice. Dry:
Oatmeal
Pumpkin Seed

It's a fleeting thought to think you can retrofit. She either has it, or you bought it for her. I have the last good woman, she deserved that stove. She does come runnin' when the grid fails though:Quote:

How do you store that much bread? I love homemade bread but I don't think we could finish seven loaves before it went bad. Or are you giving some away? It looks great!
Giving some away???????? Do you still have my address?:innocent:
Breakfast samich combo. BLT with fried egg and cheese.

I wrap them in colored Saran wrap and put them out in the arctic entry to freeze. But yes these are going to be gifts.
I'm making cinnamon raisin tonight.
As much as I hate this I'm putting on my Muklucks. Don't start eatin' without me.
I'll put the coffee on.
We had yet more leftover turkey. Looking for something to do with it, I found this recipe.
It calls for smoked turkey. Well, we don't really dig that whole "smoky" flavor very much. Therefore, the leftover meat would do just fine, if I added more seasoning.
It also calls for chipotle -- more smoke. I subbed in some soaked, seeded, and minced dried New Mexico chiles, and a dash of cayenne. Instead of the chile powder, I used ancho powder.
I thought I might up the nutrition and lower the carbs. I only used one 7oz pkg if fideos (the already crunched up kind), instead of 12oz of the coils. I used more turkey too.
I also added one small zucchini and one small yellow crookneck squash,diced, with the onions.

I used one 14oz can of diced tomatoes, and their juice, instead of whole tomatoes. This also made for less liquid. To compensate, I increased the chicken stock (2 cups?), and added some of the water (about 1/2 cup) from soaking the chiles too.
Just before pouring it in the pan, I had the fiddle with the flavor quite a bit. It was a touch too bland. I added more Mexican oregano, a little Bragg's amino acids, some Mrs. Dash.
I only used maybe 1/4 cup of sharp cheddar -- a little in the middle, and a little on top.

When served, I added a little drizzle of plain greek yogurt, mixed with lime juice and salt.

Last night I made some matzoh cracker toffee. First time I tried this recipe and it was easy and delicious!
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7031/6...b9e26f7e_b.jpg
I used this recipe:

With a couple alterations suggested in the recipe:
http://www.davidlebovitz.com/2008/01/chocolatecovere/
... the pinch of salt, and the 1/2 tsp of vanilla.
I topped it off with toasted almond slices and a little fleur de sel.
I used saltines to fill in the gaps around the edges, since I had only 3 sheets of matzoh crackers left in the box. They were tasty too, but in a different way.
Oh, and I used whole wheat matzoh. Not because I was trying to make it healthy. It was just what I had. Still tasted awesome!
