looong time

Yes. I have baked in the time since my last post. But it was all pretty boring stuff, and I didn't know where my camera cable was (we have since "made" one with a normal USB and a mini-B adaptor. Sunday night I set out to make my own pasta. And with the weather being cold, I thought lasagna would be perfect for it. Okay, the week prior I did make my own pasta and made ravioli, but I couldn't roll it thin enough, and even when it was, I swear it got thicker when I cooked it. But it did turn into perfect lasagna.






I also baked cookies and made oatmeal for the week at the same time. The cookies were pumpkin cookies (oh fall) and then the oatmeal was just the regular steel cut oats that take 20 mins to cook so I do a couple days' worth at a time.

Here are the oats:




COOKIES. This is the best dough. It's all springy and spicy. Yum!






The very best part is that I had some leftover cinnamon cream cheese frosting in the freezer, so I decided to try to do whoopie pies with it (rather than basic icing drizzles) and it was pretty much the best thing ever, but the cookie:frosting ratio was off, so I just did "open faced whoopie pies" with it. Super yum!!!!
