Today we went to Home Depot for duck island parts, Costco for groceries (everyone was properly masked etc), then stopped for some tasty burritos from our favorite food cart on the way home. It’s been 4 months since the last time we ate something we didn’t make ourselves. 🌯
The answer to today’s #WhatsItWednesday question, as correctly identified on Micro.blog: it’s my pizza dough being held up to the light while stretching, to check for thinness (aka the windowpane test). I like really thin bases and puffy edges. 🍕
Puffy pepperoni pizza. I’m currently experimenting with 4-night cold proofing; I divide and feed my sourdough starter on Wednesday, and feed the countertop copy again that night, then prepare the pizza dough on Thursday, putting in the fridge till Monday. 🍕
Tonight’s dinner: pizza with leftover Christmas ham and fresh pineapple. 🍕
Today’s #WhatsItWednesday proved to be a bit of a challenge, but was eventually correctly identified on Micro.blog: a large bubble in the very puffy crust of my most recent homemade pizza. 🍕
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 26 is “adjust”. Here’s the table setting for Thanksgiving last year. This year requires some adjustment, just Jenn and me. Stay safe out there, so you can celebrate future Thanksgivings! 📷 #mbnov
We ordered a 14 lb whole turkey from Crowd Cow last week, which they shipped in 5 lb of dry ice. That would have been fine, except FedEx left it laying around their depot for a week, so it arrived totally defrosted, and we have to throw it out. 📦🦃
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 24 is “provision”. Keeping ducks and chickens requires a lot of provisions. 📷 #mbnov
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 22 is “border”. @jidabug made a tasty “Dutch baby” for breakfast this morning; the curling border of it looks kinda like a frozen cresting wave. 📷🥞 #mbnov
