It has been a snowy, damp day today. After feeding the woodstove, I sat and watched the flames. There were several that appeared to be dancing above the logs. They flicked on and off like fireflies, floating over the logs without touching any of them. It was mesmerising. Turning, I could see the snow falling outside. Another mesmerising occurrence that allows my mind to wander into realms of fantasy.
Reality calls me back to the kitchen. I made the pumpkin cheesecake today. There was so much pumpkin that I prepared yesterday. Too much for the recipe I followed. I made two cheesecakes - very easy recipe. One of the ladies at the pot luck tomorrow can't eat wheat, so I've made her a small pot of cheesecake without the crumb base. I made two pumpkin breads as well, and froze two packs of mashed pumpkin, each holding two cups worth. After having chicken soup for tea, I tried a tiny slice of cheesecake. UMMM. It's so delicious - I had to refrain from having more, even though I was full up. So I am happy to take my offering tomorrow.
