A Dream I Had Last Fall

A dream I had last fall

I wonder what my brain was trying to tell me…? (<- was hit by a car that summer)

Back at home and I immediately retried cranberry loaf! The college ovens tend to run hot and I always forget that so my first attempt at this recipe was very… dry.

This time around it went off without a hitch! Except for when I asked my mom if it’s worth pulling out the food processor or just chopping the cranberries and she said use the emersion blender, and I… listened to her for some reason. So the berries were pulverized, and the thing was honestly more annoying to clean than anything else.

All in all though, this is a nice light less sugary bread on the crumbly side with pops of good tanginess. It was gone by the end of the night. Would’ve preferred larger cranberry chunks tho

The app I keep recipes on stopped letting me edit recipes for some reason so I undownloaded it and redownloaded it at like 1am completely forgetting that most of that shit wasn’t synced.

Moral of the story don’t delete shit between the hours of 9pm and 6am 🙃

I can retake pics of all the recipes easy (minus one or two I edited profusely,,, like my pumpkin cheesecake, or granola ratio) but it’s the pics of the food that are just GONE. Most of them weren’t saved to my phone.

And thus starts my baking achievement hunter journey this summer as I scramble to redocument my favorite recipes.

And since I’m bored I’m gonna be posting about it.

This ones dumb but I couldn't help but depict the experience

I’m learning that sometimes you just have to be loosey goose with the worldbuilding, and rules and the like will come to you! It's great!! Exploring Aus of your characters does wonders for coming to understand who they are.

Fun little scenarios my love…

Made some biscuits!

We had leftover buttermilk on hand from my birthday cake (black forest with the luxardo cherries, absolutely to die for) so I took the chance to try out Alton’s basic biscuit. Ended up kinda flat… that's what I get for skipping the gently knead it step… that and rolling it out too thin. But hey! Warm bread is warm bread. Butter and honey don't care all that much.

Sticky toffee pudding cake for my brothers birthday! Not the prettiest but absolutely delicious.

Oddly enough this one was baked using the cake setting on our rice cooker. Worked quite well and came out super satisfyingly.

This recipe is what made me grudgingly accept that dates are good sometimes.

And on the topic of birthday cakes, here’s my black forest cake back from winter that is similarly ugly yet positively scrummy!
