SLIDE:
👍Glad to hear ya’ll are doing well. I was just about to make some bread, when hubby asked me to make a grocery list so I didn’t have to do that after all.
My oven went out, so I’ve been using the toaster oven or turkey roaster for baking. Today, I’ll be cooking a beef roast to slice for sandwiches and canning 7 lbs. of hamburger meat that was on sale.
I had intended to use this cold spell to get some meat from our freezer canned up. Makes more sense to me to run the canner when the heat is needed. I haven’t felt the electricity was stable enough, plus I don’t think the electric coop needs all my burners pulling extra power.
Will have a few good meat canning days before warm weather. I baked some of my bread in the fireplace and it was tasty. Power was on and I baked most in the oven but wanted to experiment with fireplace bread. It had a slight smoky flavor that I would not have expected to like in bread. But I really liked it and I am not fond of bread.
