Best Freaking Bread ever!!!

So I made the bread. Oh that recipe is awesome! I have made zucchini bread a lot over the years since I worked at Mac's Hobbies and Crafts and the owners wife of the restaurant next door would sometimes make it. I remember trying my first piece and was in heaven. She would only make it sometimes because she got busy doing other things, and I would be so disappointed on those off days.  I researched (before Internet) for a zucchini bread recipe and could never find one that was exact. It's always been too moist. The kind that falls apart when you pick it up. It  was tasty good, but not what I wanted.

Now I have found it. The recipe that matches. It's so dense and yummy. Totally perfect for that awesome bit of butter. I practically ate one whole loaf by my self. (Please note that it is not an actual bread loaf size. I use mini loafs which is half a regular bread pan.)

Of course I should not have eaten so much. But DARN IT! I loved it. I put in an order for 6 more zucchinis. I am going to shred and freeze and everyone will get a fresh loaf for the Holidays. (again small loaf).

I also failed on my lunch today. :(   *feeling some shame*   After the weekend of getting Tiff and Ben's room done, and trying to clean my kitchen up enough I could make the bread, I had to go back to the store for more chicken so I could grill it and put it on my salad. I'm sorry to say by the time I went and came back I didn't have the energy to do more than shove it in the fridge. So I had to buy lunch at Arctic Circle today. Luckily Brandy didn't bring lunch either. So this is our one-off day, and we will eat at work the rest of the week. 

Tonight will also be a eat out night. We have to run to a Viewing for Nate, and I just don't have the time to throw a dinner together. *bad planning on my part for sure! *   So we will stop and grab.  Tomorrow I leave work early for the funeral and I'm sure there will be food, but just in case I will eat my Wal-Mart salad before I leave work.  Once I get home I will grill my chicken for the rest of the week and such.

Rachelle, I will take you up on your menu planning, I promise. I am just waiting to get my act and finances together.  I would like to be able to have the ingredients on hand after we plan. I want to make sure that I can afford to buy stuff to make some different things.

Well Dan should be here soon so I must go. I need to at least brush my hair. It's going to be a very casual viewing and funeral as Nate would have wanted us to be comfortable. Please no more death, pain, hurt, or sickness. I just don't think we can take it.

  1. I will try to fix meals with stuff you like and have in your home already but just to make it healthier. Like instead of white bread you will buy wheat bread, stuff like that. Whenever your ready let me know.
