What are you baking now?

Oh My, Teresa , I would just pull my hair out if that happened to me! All that bread and no where to bake!?!

Kim, I knew you could sympathize with that calamity! I baked the 7 loaves two at a time in my toaster oven. The 3 loaves of oatmeal bread did fine, but 3 of the 4 Amish Wheat loaves burned on top (that is a high-rising dough) and were not fit to sell. But I cut the burned tops off, sliced them up, double bagged, and put them in the freezer for me, plus took my mom a bag of the slices.
 
At least the 7 loaves weren't total loss, Teresa.

I missed that - wow, it does sound delicious!
 
I made 4 GIANT loaves of zuchinni bread last night (2 with chocolate chips), and then 2 dozen muffins, and 2 dz mini cupcake/muffins. Then I saw a recipe in the BYC cookbook I have for Banana Creamcheese Bread and whipped that up too! Its DELICIOUS! Not very creamcheesy as I thought it would be, but very nice texture... more like pound cake then bread!

Saturday We visited my Aunt and Uncle to find a Pretty Mulberry tree growing over their Fence, well my uncle told me what it was and I tried Mulberry for the First time in my 29 yrs and Loved them, I gathered a few for a cobbler and made a small one, and was told I could have all I wanted from their side of the fence, so we will go there tomorrow for lunch and I might gather me some to bring home.

Mulberry Cobbler
Rinse them, bring to boil with enough water to cover berries, and 1/2 cup sugar. Then pour into a baking dish, and top with crumble ( butter, flour, sugar) and bake til golden brown!

After harvesting our Mulberry tree for the last 3 years thought I'd give you a few tricks to make it go faster and get the most. We wash off a big plastic tarp (the blue kind) and lay it on the ground under the area we want to harvest. Then take a long pole or broom handle and hit the branches. We actually have a long telescoping painters pole that we use so we can get up high. Watch out for all the falling Mulberries. Then we gather up the sides and roll the berries to center, pick through to get the stems and leaves out and put them in a bowl. Then we lay the tarp out on the grass and wash off.

Also, wear rubber gloves and old clothes those things stain like crazy. I had sandals on one day and some hit my toes and it took two showers and lots of scrubbing to get it off.

To remove the stems for cobblers or pies (they are very bitter) you can use small scissors - one by one. We put ours through our juicer (with stems included, seeds and stems are left behind) which makes really great jelly. Try the Mulberries in combination with Boysenberries or Blackberries for a whole new dimension of flavor.

Happy picking.
