For our 😋 Dinner Date!! 😋 I made a Mocha Yule Log Cake with Brown Sugar Cream Cheese Frosting and Meringue Mushrooms! (Click the links for the written recipes) Those of you who have followed my blog for years know that I make one of these cakes every year! This time though, I got in on film! I'm learning about Google Analytics 😕 and apparently the searches for Yule Log Cakes are at their peak at the end of November, so I decided to make this video now and publish it to see how it fares. Most of the cake (I ate some lol) is in the freezer for Christmastime! 🎄

🎨😋 Thursday Art and Dinner Date: Trains

 

Welcome my Friends, to Thursday's Art and Dinner Date! 😊😊

🎨For our 🎨 Art Date 🎨, today's optional prompt is Trains! Bugs Bunny is off his rails with that load of carrots he's hauling! Please feel free to share any art you've created, we would love to see it! 

For our 😋 Dinner Date!! 😋 I made a delicious Potato and Leek Soup! (See below for the video/recipe!)

I also made a skillet bread to go with the soup. Here's the very easy recipe:

1. Proof 1 & 1/4 tsp active dry yeast in 385 ml warm water (100-105 F).

2. In a large bowl, mix 3 & 1/2 cups bread flour with 1 & 1/2 tsp salt.

3. Add yeast mixture, mix with spatula until it forms a sticky dough. (Make sure all flour is incorporated)

4. Toss some olive oil into the bowl, turn the dough a few times, cover and let rise in a warm spot for 90 minutes.

5. Preheat oven to 400 F.

6. Lightly oil your skillet with olive oil then wipe off excess. (My cast iron pan is a 12" but a 10" would make a better fit I think)

7. Place dough in pan and press out to fit the pan. Cover and let rest 30-45 minutes.

8. Bake 30-35 minutes until the top is lightly browned.
