Happy Mutants food and drink topic (Part 2)

So a followup. This version was OK, not great.

I tried again, with my traditional bread machine recipe that I had perfected after much experimentation during the early days of the pandemic. It came out PERFECT. Soft, chewy crust, nicely browned, not that light color of the previous loaf.

Any USians here getting ready for National Night Out tonight? My block is having a potluck in the street.

Normally I would bake some kind of fruit cobbler or a gingerbread or somesuch, but I donā€™t like to use the oven in the summer, and Iā€™m hoping for a nap this afternoon. I thought of getting some chips and dip, but wasnā€™t sure about having dip sit out in the summer. Then I remembered that chips come in flavors! All set now. Two is probably enough to take, though.

It was a successful gathering. Big highlight was a friendly visit from some Minneapolis firefighters with their big firetruck, and all the little kids got to climb up on it. :fire_engine: :firefighter:

I would need to be truly hungry to the point where ingesting nutrients of any type as quickly as possible was crucial for my health and survival.

Save for the chocolate syrup, itā€™s basically a peanut butter and banana sandwich. I wouldnā€™t go out of my way for it, and the syrup makes my lactose-intolerant gut biome scream in agony. But itā€™s fine for a snack or quick breakfast.

At first I thought no. But sub in a croissant for the hotdog bun and it becomes a yes.

So call me a snob. :man_shrugging:

PB, banana and honey is one of my favorite sandwiches, but NOT a hot dog bun. The bread needs to be whole wheat to stand up to the fillings.preferably toasted.

I havenā€™t any pictures of all the berries weā€™ve been picking: wild strawberries and raspberries, lingonberry, blueberry, juniper, and others I donā€™t know the names of (and which donā€™t have common names in English), so hereā€™s a picture of some golden chanterelles I picked on a walk across an island in a Baltic archipelago yesterday.

(Weā€™ve all been grazing on the ultra abundant berries so pictures didnā€™t really happen)
