Hi everyone! It’s been a busy week! I am preparing for our Canadian Korean friend to visit for Thanksgiving. We are having a mixed Thanksgiving dinner – both Canadian and Korean food. I’ve been busy preparing ahead of time. I made trips to various Korean grocers today, and serious cooking starts tomorrow.
Aside from that, my greeting cards have been taking back seat due to an unexpected opportunity falling into my lap. I will not say much now, but I did spend a lot of time arranging for decent photos of some work. The photographer was here this week to do the job. I also rewrote my bio for this opportunity.
Aside from the above, I have been busy cooking and baking this week. I baked a double batch of Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins, lots of 2-bite Brownies, a couple of Lemon Tea Loaves, a triple batch of whole wheat dinner rolls, Chocolate Chip Cookies and Granola. My freezer is full!
I also caved and learned to make yogurt in my Instant Pot. I started with a gallon of reconstituted skim milk and ended up with two litres of yogurt and two litres of whey after straining it. I used half the whey in my dinner roll recipe and, boy, did they turn out light and fluffy! I’m plotting how to use the rest of the whey. I hear you can freeze it for later use.
Well, if you have been, thanks for reading!
Happy Thanksgiving
to all my fellow Canadians!
happy thanksgiving to you 🙂
Thanks! I hope you have a good one Norma!
Happy Thanksgiving, Jean! LOL We started with the yogurt in the InstaPot this year too. No going back!
Thanks Laura! 🙂 Well the jury is out here on Instant Pot yogurt. I think I’m going to have to experiment a bit more with it. It’s still more watery than I like. I let it set for 8 hours, but maybe that’s not long enough.
