I should have been baking

Wednesday, May 3, 2017

After I got my reports ready for the Cranberry Hall Board meeting I should have started baking for our Friday night concert. Instead, I worked on my project. I thought it best to get as far ahead as possible while the instructions from yesterday were still fresh in my mind. Everything worked well today; I’ve made some changes to the notes on my pattern and I’m hopeful, should I want to do the project again, I’ll be able to.

I’ll stop at the grocery store after the meeting tonight to pick up the things I need for my baking. This week’s menu includes a Lemon Bundt Cake, Butter Tarts, Rice Krispie Squares and a couple of kinds of cookies. Although the cookie mixes are cheap and easy I found that the cookies dried out very quickly; I’ll go back to Mum’s recipes for my cookies. Since my left-overs this week will be taken to the Song Circle on Sunday I want things to be as fresh as possible.
