And dates and apples. Joelle &amp; I ate it on Saturday morning, and there was still this ample serving to reheat in the work kitchen microwave.<\/p>\n<p>I also had a bit of an overstock of baked goods this weekend. I made long rise whole wheat bread and <a href=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cranberrybars2-400x300.jpg\">cranberry bars<\/a> on Saturday, and cupcakes to take to a birthday party &#8211; of a Madison school teacher, who&#8217;s kids are the same ages as mine, so it seemed only right to use the Betty Crocker cocoa cupcake recipe I always sent to school with the kids for their birthdays. I put a little lump of cream cheese mixed with mini chocolate chips into the centers and frost them chocolate. This time I used <a href=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/2010\/10\/09\/who-knew\/\">this perfect chocolate frosting<\/a> recipe I got from Smitten Kitchen. There was a lot of frosting left, and I have overripe bananas, so I see a chocolate-frosted banana cake in the future (to be leftover yet again??). Then on Sunday I made cinnamon scones. The bread had to go into the freezer, because we have enough other bread; the cupcakes came to work &#8211; the last 8 or so. We&#8217;re eating the scones &#8211; I had two yesterday, as did Mark, I think, and both he &amp; Joelle took them for lunch today, and Al was eating one with his coffee when I left for work. So no need to share or freeze them.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4780\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cimmyscones.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4780\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4780\" title=\"cimmyscones\" src=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cimmyscones-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cimmyscones-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cimmyscones.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4780\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Last three cimmy scones<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_4779\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4779\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4779\" title=\"cupcakes\" src=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakes-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakes-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakes.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4779\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cupcakes packed to bring to work<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_4778\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakesclose.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4778\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4778\" title=\"cupcakesclose\" src=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakesclose-400x234.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakesclose-400x234.jpg 400w, https:\/\/debslunch.com\/debslunchblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/cupcakesclose.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4778\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Two cupcakes posing for closeup<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new form of dieting?
