Dessert!

Finally.

I got around to using the apples before they went over, making a galette.

I have mostly made the crust with einkorn flour, a mix of the whole grain and white, which makes a more rustic crust. This time I used 50/50 white whole wheat and all purpose. A much more flakey, delicate crust. No complaints! I rarely make a dessert. I must say, we enjoyed it. 

 

The intention was to sear tuna for dinner but I wasn't up to it. I thawed some dehydrated tomatoes and made an egg bake instead. Thanks, Val, for putting me onto dehydration, it worked perfect with the eggs.

It's 32 F, which is fine, except we are supposed to have overnight rain. It creates so much havoc. Years ago we had a pole barn roof collapse from a night of wet snow, rain and then snow again. I had three pregnant mares in there, one got trapped under part of the roof. We had the volunteer fire department here working on getting her free for what seemed like hours. It was a harrowing experience. I won't go into detail, just that they all survived. I ended up on the news that evening because a news crew heard about it on their shortwave radio and came to interview me. The mares were out of there by then. Lots of people called, mostly to comment on how calm I was. Let me tell you, before my brain injury, I was very good in high stress situations! Anyway, I digressed. I do not like above freezing weather until April!

I think I'll make some soup, clean up the tremendous mess I have in the kitchen (I am not a tidy cook or baker) and mix some bread dough to ferment. If I get one of those done it will be a whoopee. The one must be cleanup. I'll check in with you all later today, I must get something done. Ciao.
