A Day Of Baking

Okay, so here's a brief rundown of what Monica and I made today.

1) In the crock pot, we have a roast of beef, slow cooking with vegetables, which will be for dinner tomorrow.
2) We made soft tacos for dinner tonight.
3) We made quiche Loraine x2 (with wonderful peppered bacon this time!)
4) We made an apple pie/crumble with one of the first pie crusts that shrank too much to be used for the quiches.
5) We made lots of mini banana nut breads, a couple with mini chocolate chips in them.
6) We made lots of mini carrot-zucchini breads.

I THINK that's everything we've made so far! We were going to make a meatloaf to eat this week also, but I think that's going to wait until another night. We still have ground beef and sausage, pork chops, and chicken breast thawing out in the refrigerator, so we'll be cooking lots more this week I'm sure.

It's great to see Monica baking again, and it's something that's fun to do together. Now if we could only find a way to keep the kitchen/house nice and cool while we did the cooking, and if we could acquire a trained monkey or something to come behind us and do the dishes while we cooked, life would be perfect! Still, it's not so bad as it is...

Have a great week everyone. Peace.
