Note - I talk a lot of about food in this post. If food and good grocery deals don't interest you, I won't feel offended if you skim by this post in your reading list. And if you do enjoy food talk and money-saving, then we ought to talk more, and you may have a standing invitation to drop by for tea and snacks.
~ I made French toast with some of the apple bread I bought, and ate it with the stewed blackberries that were left over from making the jar of blackberry syrup. And it was delicious! I want to make more syrup just so I can have more stewed berries around to eat on French apple toast!
~ The blackberry syrup I made has cooled into more of a thin blackberry jelly. But it's still delicious over vanilla ice cream! (Even though the weather's getting cool enough that ice cream is less appealing than it was a month ago.)
~ The grocery store had boxes of 100 green tea bags on clearance for $2.99 a box. I picked up all 3 that were there, and now I think I might have enough tea bags to make frequent batches of iced green tea until the end of winter!
~ This morning I made croissants with smoked turkey and cheddar cheese rolled up in them. They burned a bit on the bottom, because I have yet to figure out how to actually bake Pillsbury croissants without doing that (no matter what temperature I have them on, they either come out burned on the bottom, or doughy inside...), but they don't taste too bad, so overall I'm pretty content with them.
~ Skipped out on embroidery class today after I woke up with a sinus headache. Promptly went back to sleep for, oh, about 3 hours. The headache's mostly gone now, which is nice, but the feeling of heavy lethargy remains, and I feel kind of bad about missing the class.
