Batch Cooking ... or something like that

A shortcut that I use often: I like to make several bags of the dry ingredients to my most-used cookie recipe so it's more motivating to make cookies on a whim; the individual bags are stored together in a bigger ziploc bag. Whenever I see that I'm about to use up the last bag, I make more. Also, I keep the recipe card INSIDE of the bag of bags. This saves time since I do not have to pull out, put away, and clean up after all of the dry ingredients each time.

America's Test Kitchen

When searching for a good mandolin slicer I happened across "America's Test Kitchen" on YouTube and I'm so glad I did! I really appreciate their channel ... it's filled with all sorts of interesting things, but I especially like it when they do equipment reviews. Here are a few I've watched ... enjoy! (actually, when looking up these videos to post I see now that I watched their stand mixer one last year before I got a refurbished KitchenAid, but I must have not thought to check out their channel at that time).

In the Kitchen with MS (or any other struggle you have)

I found this video this morning and appreciated it a lot ... I know most do not have MS but there are so many practical tips in here for anyone that struggles with extreme fatigue, cognitive dysfunction and/or issues with the eyes. If this is you, it will probably be worth your time to sit down and watch this video.
