SUGAR PRESSURE

Sweet tooth prevailed today. I made peanut butter/chocolate chip cookies and a pumpkin pie AND I ordered 3 bags of my favorite Russell Stover PECTIN Jelly Beans! HA! All natural fruit flavors, too; Grape, Strawberry, Pineapple, Cherry, Orange, Lemon and Lime! I love these over corn starch beans which are ordinary, sweet and sticky. Pectin - YEA!

Why? Because I can, that's why.

And I'll be baking a large meatloaf this afternoon. Back into the swing of things now that my photo project is finished; well almost finished.

3pm baked, sliced and ready to eat.

Recycling Bread

Made sweet, sticky brown sugar bread pudding with "homemade" bread! This should appease my sweet tooth!

I made the bread the day before and didn't like it. It was from a mix. It was tasteless! What do I do with bread I don't like? I jazz it up, of course. Can't bear to throw any food away - not even to the birds who have plenty to eat around here. 

Since taking the pictures, there are several pieces missing from the 8" x 12" pan. Unfortunately I won't be able to share with my neighbor who oftens walks past because she has left for a short trip and will be gone all week. Sorry, Margie!
