Well, what have I been mixing and cooking these days?

 Here's the delicious banana pineapple bread.  It's super.

But here's something that I made and froze some, so I can have it later.

And it tis the season for sugary treats too...

These were pre-mixed, you only have to bake them...pecan and chocolate chips and something they call caramel, like Turtles...but not really.  And I did a batch of regular chocolate lovers cookies and took thenm to church to share last week.  I only ate one to make sure it was good!

 Thanks to fellow blogger, Michele Hastings, who shared her batch of same muffins HERE.

 And since the oven was going to be on at same temp, I worked up a batch of whole wheat bread.  Actually it was my first goal, and the muffins fit right in, since they were done in 20 min. and the bread took 45.

I keep using Fanny Farmer's recipe and get these kind of low loaves.  Maybe I just need fresher yeast, or perhaps need to remember how to knead.  After all the wedging of clay, I tend to remove the air bubbles, rather than fold them in.  It tastes great however.
