Baking Friday - Bread # 9....

...calling in sick!

I'm still coughing and sound like a non-sexy Lauren Bacall who has been smoking 12 packs a day for the last 35 years, so I decided that I will hold off baking Bread # 9 until next week with our Cookie # 9.

Which is NOT to say that I didn't have a plan in place.  I even had two plans in place!

Plan # 1 - National Cheeseburger Day Thursday 9/18
I was gonna make cheeseburger sliders - some using this onion buns recipe as the foil for some pizza sliders and some using my standard honey wheat roll recipe for some jalapeno burgers.  Doesn't that sound yummy and perfect for football season?

Since that seemed a bit aggressive (after I got sick), I took a look at another idea.

Plan # 2 - Checkers Day Tuesday 9/23
I was gonna make muffins and serve them on a homemade checker "board" made of napkins and/or crepe paper.  I was going to make some poppy seed muffins (white) and some chocolate breakfast muffins (black) for "playing" and some blueberry muffins for "eating"!  Doesn't that sound fun?

But alas....I am coughing.  So folks would probably prefer not to eat anything I've baked anyway.  A soon as they heard me talking, they would politely carry off their slider or their muffin and toss it into the nearest trash can as if their very life depended on it - and I couldn't blame them!

So what to to next week?  Sliders?  Or Muffins?  Which one would go best with next week's cookie?

Ah...the big questions of life.  Excuse me while I cough...er...I mean think over it...
