I baked today.

And cooked!

Shocking, considering me lately.

I made Cinnamon Bread from the latest Fine Cooking magazine (Feb/Mar2012). Technically, it’s supposed to have raisins in it, but screw that noise! No raisins for me!

The recipe had a footnote recipe:

Butter!!

So, I made my own butter today! :D

Warm cinnamon bread with homemade butter?

Heaven!

For dinner, I modified the Thai-Style Pineapple Fried Rice with Shrimp and Cashews from the same magazine.

I halved it, then added mushrooms. And used a chicken breast instead of shrimp (shrimp were expensive and I have chicken to use).

It was good. Salty though, so I might use less soy next time. I can see me making it again, though.

Yum!

I have ALSO been tracking my food for the last few days. Amazing.

Hopefully I can lose some weight.

And keep it off.
