Busy morning in the kitchen

I got my 4th Covid booster yesterday. Never sure if the booster will sideline me, so I plan 2 light days after the shot. I think you are supposed to avoid allergy meds, so instead of sorting and adding to my booth inventory, off to the kitchen.

I made bread dough. One loaf of bread, and 3 honey pecan cinnamon sweet rolls. I got a deal on eggs, and need to use them up. I made 4 deviled eggs. I have more than enough sweets for several days, but I'm planning to make a low-carb bread pudding (Monk Fruit sweetener, almond milk, heavy cream, minimum bread)

I'll make a small pot of chicken soup from leftovers, and then do up the dishes. Happy Saturday!

Here is a link to a picture of the lower carb honey pecan cinnamon sweet roll. I used Golden Monk fruit sweetener, and a tsp. of honey to sweeten each on. I had it with a cup tea sweetened with the Golden Monk Fruit. https://imgur.com/gallery/eUmFJJx

1. A very busy morning indeed. Yummmm. May you have no reaction to the

latest booster.

3. Thanks! So far, so good

Got the sore arm, so kneading bread was good exercise. Pushing myself away from the table is also good exercise I don't usually have a bad reaction, but it is nice to be a big baby sometimes

2. I LOVE being in

the kitchen. Your post spurred me to make Babka. My recipe makes 3 loaves. I raise the dough outside here in Florida during the summer. Time to get going . . . Enjoy your food!

4. You've been busy, Marthe!

I admire that you make bread from scratch just for yourself.

I just got done cutting up 3 melons - watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew. Let me tell you that was a workout, the watermelon in particular was huge. Then I shredded a head of cabbage and 1/2 a carrot, rinsed it off, and put it in the fridge for tomorrow’s Cole slaw.

Now whenever I see a carrot, I am reminded of that stupid TV commercial…..

Good luck with your Covid booster. I hope no bad side effects!

6. I love coleslaw so much!

Must get the ingredients and make some. Really glad cabbage has stayed fairly cheap.

I will cut a slice off one side of the melon. A flat spot makes it a little more stable for the rest of the cutting. I do that for onions, too. At least your wrestling match is over for now!

7. Yummy

I seem to get fewer side effects with each booster—not even a sore arm last tim around.

8. Happy to hear that

I haven't had worse than a sore arm. I've seen posts on DU that people do okay one shot, worse on another. Nice to have a health break though
