Things I’m eating: sandwich bread
I’d like to think one of my better traits is loyalty. I would also describe myself as constant. Even when I’m being spontaneous—up and quitting my job, for example—it’s not really a deviation from the norm. After the congratulations, I usually also got an “I’m not surprised.”
One of those constancy traits that shows up is when I find a cook or baker whose work I admire, I keep following his or her recipes until the cows come home. So it goes with a small handful in my recent cooking and baking past: Deborah Madison, Dorie Greenspan, Ina Garten, Deb from Smitten Kitchen. Today is another Smitten Kitchen recipe. Even though my mom is always, “You got a recipe online?” they tend to turn out supremely awesome.
That was a long and complicated back story just to say, I hope you’re not bored with my recipes yet.
