That's okay Suzi! I am glad you enjoyed it. Besides, you needed the practice making it before you go up against me and my French Lemon Tart!

MMM... asking my honey to make lemon bars now because of the pies and tarts and I'm not a big fan of lemon.

I have 5-min art bread and 2 loaves of walnut bread rising. I may bake Korova cookies, too.

I have the Artisan Bread in Five Minutes book. I love, love, love the basic recipe I have a batch going in my fridge all the time

 

[luvs]

jake's baking us cake mix cookies, with me instructing him fer a few. lovebug.

 

[suziquzie]

I'm bored. Every time I try to do a chore the kids start messing with stuff and I'm not in the mood.
I think I will interrupt thier game of sharpening pencils and make some oatmeal raisin cookies with them. I'll clean at naptime. maybe.

 

[GrillingFool]

I don't bake.
I do a birthday cake for the wife, and MAYBE 1 or 2 other safaris into
the scary world of baking a year.

So when I do bake, even if it is a box mix, I am proud.

Therefore, you will be subjected to the year's ugliest cake:

The Monster Mulberry 4 Layer Cake!

Got my baking done for tomorrow's Brat's & Burgers fest. Everyone is looking forward to the fresh rolls & buns more than the meat. Big meatloaf-style burgers will be getting big buns... 3.5 oz. dough portions. Brats made with 2.75 oz. dough. The digital scale sure makes for nice consistency of size. Nobody should go away hungry.



Also have two loaves of NYT for dipping appetizers.

Joe

they look wonderful, Joe.

Looks pretty good, GF. I am sure it tasted incredible and that is what counts.

Okay, I have said it many times and put it off just as much, but today is a baking day. I need to use up some bananas so I will finally make the monkey bite muffins and need to make at least one batch of cookies but hopefully two.

 

[MexicoKaren]

Grilling Fool, it may not be the world's prettiest cake, but it looks delicious. Makes my mouth water!

 

[SixSix210]

My DW's (meshoo96) B-Day cake! The baking isn't the problem...the decorating is

 

[LPBeier]

Hey Six, would you like me to pop over and give you a few decorating lessons?

 

[LadyCook61]

Just my NY times bread, which has roasted garlic , red pepper flakes and rosemary in it.

 

[bethzaring]

whole wheat dinner rolls

 

[LPBeier]

Okay, I finally got my Monkey Bite Muffins made. I have posted the recipe and another picture here. I also have the dough and cinnamon sugar ready to make some snickerdoodles as soon as I finish cleaning up from supper.

 

[Katie H]

No baking for me today unless you count how "baked" I felt in the car as I was doing my shopping.

However, tomorrow will be another story. I have a whole head of roasted garlic panting to go into the starter for N.Y. Times bread tomorrow. Can't wait. Chopped rosemary is going to join the garlic. Yumm.

Bought some pineapple cake mix today to "create" some pina colada cookies later this week. Now...where's my rum?

 

[redkitty]

Yum Laurie, those look so good!

Today is baking mania at our house!

Since I am packing the Kitchenaid mixer this weekend I'm baking for the last time for a while. I decided to make 4 kinds of cookies.

Double Dark Chocolate (these are my specialty and it's where I got my name "cookie master" !!

Oatmeal Raisin (my favorite!)

Peanut Butter (most Brits have never had pb cookies!)

And of course the classic, Chocolate Chip!!!

I'm baking for our landlords, my neighbors, the postman, my one friend here and our vet. It's my goodbye goodies for them. They have all made my stay here much more tolerable.
