Lasagna, pan roasted cauliflower and focaccia for dinner tonight.

I also have a loaf of sourdough under development for baking tomorrow.

Yesterday I made these, with a few tweaks with my sourdough discard. I didn't think they were that great but my family is obsessed and my husband renamed them fiesta cakes.

The couple tweaks I made is that I added cheddar cheese to the pancakes. Also, I made a pot of black beans & some lime sour cream. https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/corn-and-scallion-sourdough-pancakes-recipe

I had to buy some motor oil (essential need!) so placed an order at the local hardware store... they happened to have a waffle maker on sale, so I finally bought one. So this AM, I am going to make waffles.

Tonight we will likely have polenta & roasted veg & a runny egg.

I'm pretty sure my rye sourdough starter is the adult version of a tamagotchi.  I remembered last night (day 4) in bed that I forgot to feed it but it seems ok today maybe

I made a tasty loaf of banana bread yesterday. I feel reassured as a baker after the crappy rolls I made earlier this week.

If you like crusty rolls, this recipe is easy & good and can hang out in your fridge all week so you only bake what you need each day. https://www.kingarthurflour.com/blog/2016/12/07/no-knead-sandwich-rolls

I'm trying to revive my starter that got thrown into the freezer for a month. After about a week it is starting to look like it might come back but I think it will take a couple of weeks to mature again to where I want to use it.

Mine was 7.3 miles with 25 minute warm up, 10 minute cool down, and a workout in between. First track workout since Oct. or maybe even Sept., and first of this build up. 

Did 1400 (6:06 mile pace), 1200 (6:16), and 1000 (6:10) with recovery of 1/3 of rep duration; 10 minute recovery; then all out mile (5:54). So it's coming along.

Also skep of USATF masters t&f going off in July but holding out some hope for local racing by summer.

3.3 miles, followed by 1 x 400m, 4 x 200m strides.

Not ready for sprinting just yet; I’m dubious we’ll have Nationals in July.
