Craftycat that made me giggle

I married him for life, but NOT for lunch!

I too have been baking more, bread baps, malt loaf, biscuits. Looking now at new recipes I can try.

I made a largish fruit cake as a kind of traybake then cut it in portions and froze two thirds of it. Worked well til OH came across it in the freezer and said “Oh good - cake “ and took it out. He had his cholesterol checked during his over 70 check up and both figures are bad. Back to the drawing board!

Me too, I have cooked, 2 freezers now full. Even doing some baking which I'm not good at but I'm trying. I've made huckle duckle this morning for the first time despite having the recipe in my book for around 25 years smile. I have made 3 lemon cakes too. Quite enjoying it all actually. Now looking to see what I'm going to do next.

For some reason I am going potty cooking during this crisis.
I am able to drive out to the shops & doing shopping for more elderly neighbours so I have no lack of ingredients but why I am so baking mad I do not know. We have home made bread, cakes, biscuits, scones etc coming out of our ears & all the freezers are full.
I suspect it is a self survival instinct setting in yet I am not really worried about the situation as I am fit & healthy so would expect to get a mild dose of the lurgy anyway.
Having daily walk & our Yoga teacher is putting classes on line everyday for us to join in so nor bored either.
Maybe it is something to keep me in kitchen as being with DH 24/7 is getting a bit of a trial. I married him for life but NOT for lunch!!
