This is my problem too. Now I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do with a 4 ton bag of flour that I got at Costco today. I had two partially used 1kg bags, and both were expired (2018 and 2019). That's how often I use them. I started baking muffins and biscuits these last two weeks. Now I'm looking at bread starter, tortillas, and pancake mix. It's actually kind of nice to have some time to go back to basics around the house.
It's probably a good thing I'm back in the office this week...2 -

I'll have to make a trip out for the things I couldn't find today. I'll see about finding some lard. It can be kept in the freezer, right? What if I just bought a bunch of bacon and saved the bacon fat out of the pan? :bigsmile:1 -

I was thinking strawberry rhubarb, but apple would be good too. I also like meat pies. I'm not particularly picky on my pies.KrissCanDoThis wrote: »Lol sorry pav, I would rather no raisins tho in my tarts... but they would probably be amazing with bacon lol

I had forgotten about the all important meat pies until this post. I shall need some lard. I could make some single serving meat pies for work! I would appreciate it if the snow would stop though.1 -
This has become the Canadians drooling over food and the Americans who covet the food thread! :laugh:5

Strawberry rhubarb is the best pie. I usually make it for Easter, but it wasn't worth the trouble with no guests.
Apple is the second best pie, and cherry the third.3 -
Nope, peach pie.3

Concord grape pie. But (1) no one ever makes it, and (2) neither do I, because it's fussy. So good, though!2

I was in shorts working out in my outdoor workout space I created last week. Then today it's snowing. At least with isolating I can't get my snow tires changed yet so I guess it's a win?
I often making individual meat pies but don't have the tins. I'll have to see what I have1 -
Back to the OP - one thought i had reading this is that this is the time of year when people usually start looking forward to summer and going to the beach or on vacation or training for a hike or race. Where I live, most races are held in April and May or October. This year, all the races are cancelled, all the vacation are cancelled, beaches are closed and it is hard to envision a time when things will be back to normal. Why get a beach body if I'm not going to the beach or the pool? For a lot of people, weight loss has taken a back seat to other priorities. As someone said above, after this is over, people are going to be interested in losing any weight they've gained or start new exercise programs. Some of the new walkers will think about starting to run. People who've enjoyed cooking at home will try to figure out how to make it less fattening. But at the moment, time seems to have stopped, and a normal summer seems very far away, if not impossible.6
