Miss Austen Regrets and Some English Muffins
Okay, now, let’s all say what we think about the PBS show Miss Austen Regrets that came on last night. Anyone, anyone? Or were y’all all too wrapped up in the Super Bowl? By the way, Jon and I caught the last 10 minutes of the game and, wow, was it exciting! Anyway, do tell what your opinion was of the Masterpiece show, if you caught it.

This weekend I made a new (to me) recipe. My 9 year old LOVES English muffins. And, a few weeks ago, I stumbled across this recipe for them. So we made them on Saturday and they were delicious. A great thing about the recipe is that you stir it up the night before and then let the muffins have a short rise (about 20-30 minutes) the following morning. Then, you cook the muffins in a skillet. I have to say, it was almost spooky, or maybe I should say magical, how the rounds of dough went from their original state to a muffin with perfect honeycomb texture on the inside in less than 15 minutes. We’ll definitely be making these again. Who knows, I might even make them and have some folks over for brunch. If I do, I’ll make this recipe for eggs benedict. Yum.

And now, on to today’s bread making, King Cake. Because, y’all, tomorrow is not only Super Tuesday, it’s Fat Tuesday, too.
