November 29: toaster pastries

Thanks to my trusted Homemade Pantry book, we had delicious pop-tart-like dessert tonight. I made pie crust in the morning and refrigerated it for the day. Our friend Laura came over in the evening with two jars of homemade jam, and we made the pastries. Rich, tasty, not too hard to make, though perhaps somewhat time-consuming. It was worth it, though. Baking with friends is always a treat, especially when results are so great. Really, these can’t even compare with pop tarts. I was also pleased to find that J. didn’t know what a pop tart is. All the more reason to keep making homemade goodies!
