Pepperjack and Sourdough


Good Morning! I always find that the first sip of coffee is just a sip of heaven, I love it. Yesturday for breakfast I made a meatless scramble with a ton of pepperjack cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Served with toast and topped with my homemade grape jam. I have a huge grape vine in the backyard.
I forgot to take a picture of dinner. I made chicken cacciatore but served it over jasmin rice. I was happy with it. We are still enjoying small bites of fudge, I think I ended up with close to 3 pounds it seems. I've been thinking about Christmas cookies. I want to make molasses cookies, which we've done before but I want to smother them in red and green sugar. Simple but those are one of my favorites so I'm always out to make them.
And about my sourdough starter, its going good so far. It's been in the glass jar in the fridge now for 1 1/2 days and there is now a clear liquid on top so I guess its ready to be used. I plan to make my lasagna, which takes about 1 1/2 hours, to go with my fresh baked sourdough. Once I use my starter by adding a couple ingredients, it has to sit at room temp for 8 hours. I wont have time to make it for dinner tonight, I would have had to start it around 5:30am to have it had sat, risen and baked in time for dinner around 6pm. Even then I feel I would be cuttin' it close. So I will do the bread today which will make two round loafs and save it for tomorrow.
I'm feeling my husbands need for red meat today so I will be cooking something very hearty tonight. Haven't yet looked at my list so I'm not sure what it will be.
