Last night I baked a 1/2 sheet of lemon bars. Here they are, ready to go to the restaurant today.
E took some samples that I baked this weekend to the coffee shop. He's going back today to take some business cards. I hope to hear back from them soon. I'm thinking I should probably bake a few cakes, cookies, and pies to take to them to sample. That way they'll know what all I can bake.
I took some samples to work and everybody loved them. People kept thanking me for bringing them yummy treats. Sigh. I love to make people's taste buds happy! E took a sample tray to his supervisor and she said that she will volunteer to be my official taste tester. :)
Here is a pic of my Brookies and a recipe I created, Cherry Coconut Bars. Those bars were delicious. I'm entering them into the Pillsbury Bake-Off. I doubt I'll have a chance, but you never know. I'm going to toil around with some other recipes to see what I can come up with.
I decided that I wanted to start baking my own bread. I'm a little nervous using yeast, so I decided to just start out using the bread machine. Here is a loaf of white bread. The house smelled so good as it was baking. Oh, and it tasted good, too. If I have time this weekend, I'll try to do some regular bread baking. I think I'll have to go buy some more bread pans first, though.
Saturday morning I wanted to make E a nice V-Day breakfast. Along with eggs and bacon, I made these Cranberry-Orange Biscuits from BH&G. I'll try to remember to post the recipe tomorrow. These were delicious! I've never made a biscuit by scratch before (can you say Bisquick?) so this was a treat. It's so much better than the baking mixes so I think I'll start making all biscuits by scratch from here on out.
I may mess around with something tonight, or just take the night off. I haven't decided yet.
