I have been on a loaf pan frenzy for the last two months...don't know why, but if it fit in a loaf pan, then that was the food's vehicle for the day. This is my second post after being away for a month and not writing for Sundays with the Lechlers, so as I was searching for inspiration snickerdoodle bread showed up everywhere I looked all of a sudden. I could post several recipes, but what is the point when you can google snickerdoodle bread and take your choice of dozens of recipes. I am going to select one and if it is really good, I will tell you where to find it. If you find one, please let me know what you've tried. The snickerdoodle cookies are so good and so old fashion, I just don't know why I never heard of snickerdoodle bread until today. (Maybe it was the loaf pan that caught my attention.)
Mennonite Girls Can Cook's (blog) featured individual beef wellington today. I have always wanted to try that, but if you don't get it right, think of the cost of that mistake. Beef is so expensive now and we are paying steak prices for ground chuck now days unless it happens to be on sale, so the cut that costs in the puff pastry wrap is a treasure to be uncovered for sure if it is done right.
Another thing I didn't realize until this Florida trip, stores' prices are not fixed and depend on the area in which you are shopping at the time. I thought if Kroger had a price for ground chuck, one could get that price in any Kroger store no matter which one you happened to drive to. Not so, if you are in a high toned area, those prices will reflect that. Publix is a really nice grocery store in Florida but you can pay one price and then drive 20 miles and find a different price. (Andy does a lot of our shopping, so I am constantly surprised and always interested in the way things play out.)
