@ArachneJericho Ditto! I did the Flit Orphans storylet (Shadowy 40) until it finally took away the Try Again.
@pathar I admit I worry about not being able to see the new stuff just because I play every day. (I'm nearly maxed out now.) #ebz
@ArachneJericho Quite convenient :D I'm going back to that when I'm done Duelling- it's one of the most fun sections, even w/the minor grind

Baked Plantains and Burro Bananas
This recipe is one I decided to try on a whim with some black plantains we’d picked up on special. If you pick out green plantains at the store, you can let them ripen on the counter, but be careful of letting them go too far — if mold develops, you probably need to use them without delay. (The peels are very very thick so a little bit of mold on the surface isn’t a big deal. Just wash it well before you peel it.)
I didn’t like Bittman’s original way of cooking this dessert (which involves cutting slits…

Baked Jalapeno Poppers
I admit it: One of my sins is ordering jalapeno poppers at Arby’s on the rare occasion that I stop in for a bite of lunch. I’ll also order them just about everywhere else that carries them and every so often, I pick up a box of them at the store. They’re not very good for me though.
Lately, my husband and I have been mulling over snacks. It can be incredibly difficult to make lots of small meals, but having healthy snacks around is a fiendishly difficult proposition for us. When cucumbers are on sale, those are snacks…

Tacos de Verdolaga con Achiote Frijoles Recado y Guacamole
All this week, I’ve been attempting to tempt you with delicious recipes for delectable Mexican food. Now, as promised, here’s one way to wrap it all up together.
I speak, of course, of the humble taco.
While both of the recipes previously work wonderfully on their own and can be used with many varied meals, they go nicely together and fantastically well if you tie them together with a bit of guacamole.

Strawberry-Rhubarb Crumble
I thought this came out beautifully. I used a combination of whole-grain flours and added cardamom, which boosted the flavor considerably. I love crumbles for their simplicity – toss fruit with sugar, top with a mixture of flour, oats and more sugar. However, to cut down on at least some of the sugar, I used one of the stevia-sugar products, Sun Crystals, to acquire the same sweetness without as many calories. Now if only there was such a thing for brown sugar!

English Muffin Bread
Today, I’m continuing the breakfast post from last week with two recipes for English Muffin Bread! This bread is superb, with a lovely, craggy crumb and is just right for pairing with Breakfast Sausage Patties.
We love our English muffins, but the damned things are super-pricey off-sale. What we like best is to fry an egg, a Breakfast Sausage Patty and top our freshly toasted, buttered muffin with them for a Muffinwich.
