Grats on the new home!
We're on the 3rd or 4th day of off-and-on-again rain here, so I probably still can't get out into the garden. Lots of niggling things to do indoors anyway, though (laundry, ironing, dishes, cutting up cardboard boxes, boxing donations, whatever), and I am also trying to do a few things for myself.
DH is desperately hoping that his favorite Thai restaurant will be open tonight (after being closed for some days, probably because the owner's son, a senior in high school, is auditioning at various universities to be accepted as a music major, so dad has to travel). So dinner tonight is either Thai takeout (if DH is lucky - he wants his Thai iced tea!), or else sous vide pork chops with roasted potatoes and asparagus, with leftover cheesecake (which DH got earlier this week) for dessert.
On a side note, I experimented last weekend with making a hybrid keto pound cake. Hybrid, in the sense that I added some carbs to the pound cake, and DH insisted on real sugar for the glaze. I used the King Arthur's keto muffin mix
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B4169MH7?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details, followed their directions and used 5 eggs for a pound cake, added about 1+/- tsp of lemon extract, and 1 cup of frozen/thawed wild Maine blueberries. For the glaze DH used powdered sugar and Galiano, maybe with a bit of vanilla extract too.
It turned out pretty good, you couldn't tell at all by the taste that it wasn't a "real" pound cake (though it was lighter in texture), so I bought two more boxes of the muffin mix, and am thinking of new variations to try - maybe a chocolate pound cake with some chocolate chips and a Kahlua glaze, and maybe an orange pound cake with something or other added.
(Yes, I know that there are now tons of Me Too Keto recipes out on the web, but I am both lazy and have too many things to do to want to bake from scratch. (But I have an unquenchable sweet tooth and must have SOMETHING to satisfy that craving.) King Arthur has been reliable for quality in its other products so I took a chance on their mix, and I'm pleased with this first result. And the pound cake had non-keto things added to it because plain old pound cake is boring.)
Everyone have a good and safe week!
