This weather, and the subsequent housebound-ness, is wreaking havoc on my eating. For one thing, we're doing lots of baking to while away the time and keep the kids busy and interested in something other than TV and video games. For another, it's just so easy to snack.
In order to minimize the damage, I'm sending all baked goods out of the house as soon as the roads are passable again. I sent a dozen and a half chocolate chip cookies to my husband's office a few days ago, and I'll do the same with the Barefoot Contessa's red velvet cupcakes we made today.
We also tried the No-Knead Bread recipe from the Sullivan Street Bakery via the NY Times. It's out of the oven but I haven't tasted it yet so can't render a final verdict.
Yum!! Feel free to send anything my way!! I'll email you my address!! That bread looks seriously YUM!
ReplyDeleteThe bread looks great. I will be curious to hear how it is - and if it's good, I'll be asking you to share the recipe... :)
ReplyDeleteI almost licked my monitor to taste those cupcakes. I don't blame you for sending them out of the house!
ReplyDeleteOh YUM!!!
ReplyDeleteOh geez. That all looks so good!
ReplyDeleteI've also been snacking a lot more than usual, but not on such yummy stuff as what you are making.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful...you are an accomplished cook...be strong!
