The Last Thing You Put In Your Mouth....

sugared spanish peanut

I've just discovered how to make "spanish peanuts" into candy. Inexpensive for a bag (they have skins but one leaves them on), tasty.

a slice of pierogi pizza with apple sauce

(wondering how the pizza would work with a few apple slices mixed in with the potato and onion)

2 oatmeal pancakes thawed and toasted with butter and powdered sugar

water

need tea

My homemade rye bread. Delicious, but a pain in the ass to make, re me and the kneading which I'm generally fine at but gradually losing hand muscle; this time it was a chore I'll avoid again. I couldn't even hand whack slap the dough to somehow bring gluten, as the mass would break apart. It was dry, since I followed directions and didn't add more water - and I can see why on that, water brings on more sticky. I did see that if one had a breadmaking whirly, you could add two more tablespoons of water.

So, my loaves looked like ill begotten combined crumbs, but I forged ahead.
Hard to slice. However, even the clumps were delicious (I used the fennel).

I'll grab onto some fresh loaf website advice and try again. Right now I'm weighing delicious and aggravating.

liver and onions.

leftover potato wedges and pork chops with Cubano mix (sounds fancy eh <not> it's salt/paprika/red chili flakes)

the Cubano mix thingie looks pretty on the back of the stove

a free range egg custard tart

leftover pork sausage (and other stuff) risotto turned into spicy tomato soup with the addition of some leftover carne adovado sauce. Powie!

Paul Newman version of fig newtons.

fauxish pizza

(naan bread with alfredo sauce/almond-stuffed olives/cremini/smoked salami/cheese - grilled)

Lamb casserole, with seven veges. Mmmm....

hardwood smoked summer sausage and shredded mozza on a slice of toasted sourdough sesame bun

I may just have more of that

Thick rice millet bread with a bit of butter and fig smear, yummy coffee. Yum.

Fried chicken. I hate myself. That was supposed to be off my diet, but I was hungry and there it was.

I love Paul. His Balsamic Vinaigrette is a kitchen staple.

maybe a bit too garlic-y but, well, I love it like this

A couple of matcha cookies from Four and Twenty Blackbirds bakery and a large mug of darjeeling tea

chocalates and candy
