First Baking Experiments

[krpalmer]

Although at times sluggish to bestir myself to things, I did manage at last to get around to “since I can’t go anywhere, I’ll try baking.” One week after looking at the muffin tins in the supermarket but not buying them, I managed to see in a flyer that bakeware was now on sale. Baking for one, I picked up a six-muffin tin and the packaged mix you add an egg to to feel like you’re doing something with it. After mentally halving all the ingredients (save the egg) to make a dozen muffins and thinking the six I’d made looked kind of small, I mixed together two-thirds of the recommended amounts the next time and made a nicer-looking half-dozen. With that taken care of, I asked for the cornmeal muffin recipe in my family, which meant more measuring and mixing, but the end results turned out much as I remembered them. There have been times I’ve got around to something and then just sort of let it slide, but this time I do still have a lot of flour and cornmeal in a high-up cabinet.
