This is as close as I can get to celebrating Fat Tuesday.
The rolls were yummy.

Drinking beer in the morning?
As I was handling the can of beer I thought I might be giving the wrong idea about my drinking habits.
I really don’t care to drink beer, except maybe on a hot summer’s day. I prefer to use it to make yummy bread. Making a loaf is a great use for a can of beer.

Sprouts in my kitchen
I have two videos I made about sprouting seeds on YouTube. This is the second one I did.
It’s easy to sprout seeds. I love to eat alfalfa sprouts. You don’t need anything fancy. A canning jar works with a cheesecloth cover. Soak seeds overnight in room temperature water. Pour off the water. Each morning and evening, pour room temperature water into your container and then drain well. Depending on the seeds you are using, they will sprout in a day or two. After they grow a few more days, you can eat them. When they grow large enough, rinse, and then refrigerate them. Great for salads, tacos, and sandwiches. Find different seeds to sprout if you want other flavors. Radish sprouts are a little spicy.

Gluten free bread — first attempt
I love making bread, but this is my first gluten free bread bake.
This package mix came from Bob’s Red Mill. All special ingredients were supplied. To do it from scratch, I’d have to stock up on some specialty items.
This bread is a bit more coarse than my usual bread, so I hope it will pass the test when my grandson gives it a try.

A special peppermint stick and orange treat
How many of my friends have had this special holiday treat? I wonder.
When I was a child, our stockings held oranges, peppermint sticks, and an assortment of nuts. This is how my sister and I used our peppermint stick and orange. When the juice was gone, we ripped open the orange and ate the inside.
