Saturday Morning Kitchen Stories

Justin has wanted a waffle iron for a long time, so when Scott and I saw this one at Lidl on Friday, we snapped it up. I cooked up a batch Friday afternoon and surprised the kids with them. Justin wanted some more Saturday morning, so I decided to hand the recipe over to Scott and Justin and let it be their thing.

Scott took to the task, and his waffles were much prettier than mine. I think waffle making as the guys' thing on Saturday mornings is a wonderful idea.

Aren't they pretty?

I decided to make granola with some leftover walnuts and coconut from Christmas baking and came across a recipe that includes applesauce. I haven't made granola for years, but it sounds yummy.
Our home group met on Wednesday evening. I prepared a galette des rois to share, but then Jean-Pierre brought lovely bakery treats, and Daniel and Febe brought this panettone. I put the galette to the side, we'll eat the panettone at our next meeting, and the bakery treats were amazing. Probably time to come up with some kind of who brings what schedule.
I had also made a batch of chili for home group. Unfortunately, I used a new batch of chili powder from the Asian food store that was ridiculously hot. I couldn't serve it, so Scott and I have been dousing it with yogurt to cool it down enough to eat for lunch everyday. It took us four days to eat (I had made a large batch), but we did it.

Bought these clementines Friday. There were a lot in here. This is how many were left at 11am Saturday. Two were left on Saturday night. I don't even have teenagers in the house.
This is for the pizza dough that I was going to make Friday night. I put the dry ingredients together so that I could get started when I got back from dropping off Justin at church. Instead of dropping him off and leaving, I stayed and chatted. We had pizza on Saturday night.
