Gentle murblings about plans for the next few days.
My mother has just given me sack #1 of apples, and I'm going to pick up sack #2 tomorrow while I'm in Cambs (goes the intention). Consequently I am thinking gently about baking. In addition to stewing a lot of them I'm planning to spend Friday making:
(1) Apfelstrudel
(2) upside-down gingerbread apple cake (smitten kitchen swapped some of the molasses for honey then cut the sweetness of the topping -- I suspect I'll slightly cut the sugar for the topping but leave the molasses as-is)
(3) the sk apple-and-honey cake was good last time I made something that wasn't actually it at all and I suspect it will be again (+ some ground almonds in the batter, natch)
(4) macaroni cheese (which is not made with apples)
... and then Sunday dinner is going to be veggie shepherd's pie, I Have Decreed, with potato-celeriac mash and a bit of cheese (and maybe some roasted garlic in the mash if I'm feeling enthusiastic); body of lentils-finely chopped mushroom-celery-leek-carrot-onion-peas-stock.
