Ok, Kids. I'll get this one started since I was busy in my kitchen at 0600 this morning. Got the sandwich rolls replenished for the freezer, and made a batch of my Oatmeal Raising Cake Cookies with walnuts. Can anyone say YUMMO????

Hey, don't nobody bake anymore? Let's get this thread going and staying alive. Tonight when I get home from work I'm making apple strudel.

I'm a bum. I don't bake.
Love those of you who do though :smile:

That apple strudel looks delicious, Joe! What I wouldn't give for a piece while I finish the last of my coffee this morning....

I just ate 3 Krispy Kreme Donuts does that count as baking?

What about those donuts from the other thread? Do you have a recipe for those? Besides good pizza shops, there aren't any donut shops out here either :sad: Sometimes living in the country sucks.

Feels like a cookie day. I have to make 3 birthday cakes in the next week, so cakes are out. Hmmmm, then again, kinda feels like a Rye bread day too......

I just made a batch of corn muffins and one corn bread. Lou got the woolee earlier this week and I do so love to give my man what he wants:wub:..Besides, I know there is very little to be afraid of in my muffins.

So, tomorrow morning we'll be enjoying them in bed with huge cups of coffee and the NBC morning news..

My mom's pulmonologist is my ex's parents' friend. He knows my baking well. So at some point, a sour cherry chocolate torte is in his future. Right now, I just have too much on my plate to make it.

I feel so inferior. (Insert head hanging low Smiley)
I've already gripped elsewhere about not being able to make bread down here. No bakeries here either. Maybe it's not just me. And GrantsKat agrees and she's in Flagler County, north of here.
I gave up trying to figure out why.
But maybe it's a good thing. My love for bread and butter and a good cup of coffee is unsurpassed. I'd be the Pilsbury doughgirl. No joke!

But oh those pictures are sooooo perty. Thank you all.

Well, my butt was dragging when I got home last night so the strudel never got made. I'm getting ready to shape the Italian loaves that I made an hour ago, so we can have them with the Italian Wedding soup that went on the stove at 0600.

I havent given up yet calico!!! I was able to make a decent pizza dough.....I still wanna try putting the dough in a formed pan while it rises, so that it wont "spread" sideways, does that make sense?:huh:

C'mon, kids. Let's keep this thread alive. Here's what I made today to take on my fishing trip tomorrow. Oatmeal Raisin Walnut Cake Cookies.

I love my #70 disher. Every cookie came out 2-1/4", and I got 56 cookies from this recipe, and fit nicely in this container for transporting in my back pack. Hope the TSA folks don't get the munchies. LOL

Joe, I reposted Mary's recipe where you found that there was too much water--how did you adjust down in the end. I don't want others to have the same problem. It has been a while since I made it and I did it with my mom. I think my mom knew to instinctively hold back on the water. Grandma must have taught her.
Thanks for those on the board--I don't want anyone to have a mishap. I did mention what you said when I posted the recipe.

Joe, you are shaming me. I will have to turn off the puter and get busy. Maybe a bit of baking will help me destress and I can always make my neighbors happy. I had St. Valentine's Day baking plans as it is.

I really want to make Sour Cherry Chocolate Tortes.

I made that onion bread yesterday (I'm surprised how well it held overnight) and I'm making Hamantaschen today. Dough came out of the fridge about 30 minutes ago. I'll try to post some pics later.

Is this a Babka recipe that uses 15 egg yolks?
