Thank you for posting details about the way you use your oven on your baking days. I've never thought of doing it that way and by using your ideas, I now see how I can accomplish more baking during the course of a day. I've been feeling frustrated because I haven't been getting the amount of baking done that I'd like to - especially with the cost of food going up all the time.<br /><br />It's one of those things that seem so obvious, once it's been pointed out, but is a method I've never thought of. I can see that I'm going to be a regular reader of your blog.<br />Blessings,<br />MaryMaryhttp://www.trustinghim.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824212541842333030.post-19205309610609618532008-09-24T08:15:00.000-05:002008-09-24T08:15:00.000-05:00What a wonderful idea!

Both my husband and I work out of the home, so unfortunately it doesn't work for us to bake quite like this, however we have found that Sunday is a great day to be in the kitchen and get all the food for the week ready. Another thing we've been doing much more of (which would be impossible without electricity) is preparing many meals for the month and freezing them. It's efficent with cost and also easy since we can just defrost the meal the night before. We have found this method to be useful with busy out of home schedules. We also do this with bread. Making several loafs and cutting them, then packaging and freezing them.<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much for your useful hints!<BR/><BR/>-Lisa (onthefox.blogspot.com)Tim and Lisa Reitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00866039732458914235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824212541842333030.post-82827177252136233292008-09-21T10:10:00.000-05:002008-09-21T10:10:00.000-05:00That is such a good idea!

I bake enough bread and snacks to last 3-4 days at a time. This includes snacks for my husband to take to work. Muffins are made to have for breakfasts and also a snack.<BR/><BR/>One tip that I love to do is to bake some of the muffins or cookies in the mini muffin pan. Doing this gives you muffins & cookies that are bite size. This is the perfect size for snacking on the run or for little toddlers or preschoolers!Granny Simplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14110266660205010465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824212541842333030.post-81768412824516373702008-09-20T22:19:00.000-05:002008-09-20T22:19:00.000-05:00I love the idea of getting all the baking done in ...I love the idea of getting all the baking done in 1-2 days. It is funny that you mention getting things done before dark. We were just talking about that tonight. God made the dark for sleeping and the light for working. I wish we were more in the habit of doing things this way. If we work to get everything done before dark, then of course you will be tired when the sun goes down, it is just as God planned.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
