Baked two large loaves of white loaf bread this morning. Yum, the house smelled so good.
Tomorrow I'll bake a couple of loaves of crusty baguette. I like to have at least one loaf in the house to serve with soup or to make melba toast for spreads.

Cherry pie. Normally, I'd pit fresh cherries but this is February..and the cherries aren't even a glint in the trees' eye yet
. So, I used canned cherries. I tossed most of the juice, added the zest of a lemon, a bit of almond extract, sugar and corn starch. I put some ground almond into the dough, too.

I baked these yesterday (one of my favorites)
Chocolate Euphoria Cookies
12 oz. semi sweet chocolate chips, divided
3 Tbsp butter
3/4 c. sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 c. flour
1/4 tsp. bkg powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. milk
1-1/4 c. walnuts
Preheat oven to 350f.
Melt half the chocolate chips in double boiler until smooth (or use microwave). In separate bowl, beat butter, sugar, egg and vanilla until smooth. Sift together dry ingredients. Stir melted chocolate and milk into butter mixture. Mix in dry in gredients, then remaining chocolate chips and walnuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet and bake 8 minutes. Yield: 3 dozen
(recipe is easily doubled)
But I need more (the natives are restless) so today I'm making these:

But my 15-year old has asked me to sub the chocolate chips for white chocolate chips and to add macadamias as well.

As planned, I made two baguettes. One will be used for tonight's dinner. The other will go live in the freezer. Love the smell of bread baking.

Made a chocolate cake today. I just frosted it but I think the frosting is a little too thick. It will still taste delicious though! Yummers!

Have a batch of NYTimes bread doing it's thing. DH loves it, so easy to prepare, heck, he's worth it! Did add a tiny bit of sugar just to proof the dough, which with the water and yeast, still didn't. Hope it turns out, if not, we'll survive. Thank God, soon, Uncle Bob's flour will arrive here so I can make the biscuits. Just kidding UB, seeing if you're awake yet this morning.

Today? Only today?
I got the sourdough starter(s) out this afternoon, fed them, put 3 pounds in the fridge, have 2 pounds fermenting for sourdough bread and one pound for baguettes.
Technically I'm starting to bake today but will finish tomorrow.

Today I made Flourless Chocolate Brownies from Nigella Lawson. They turned out wonderful - fudgy, nutty, and rich. Great by itself or topped with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup.
If I had used Splenda instead of the powdered sugar the recipe called for, this would have been a real low-carb, sugar-free dessert!

I was really lazy and decided to bake some brownies from a box. I used butter instead of vegetable oil and added some milk chocolate chips. Yum.

Chopstix, those brownies sound divine!
Sofie's swim class was canceled because of all of the snow and ice we're getting, so after being outside to play in the snow at 7 AM (Sofie was up really early, excited about the snow!) we came in and made some oatmeal-cranberry bars together.
