Furlough Monday Peach Dumplings (plus an apple dumpling)


My summer internship is now furloughed on Mondays, and while that normally wouldn't affect me, I needed to make up some hours so Mondays felt especially empty. So after finishing up at my volunteer position, I went home and made peach dumplings. I pretty much based them off of this recipe . She called them Individual Whole Peach Pies but I always called the apple version Apple Dumplings so I applied the same nomenclature to peaches. Regardless of what you call them, they're delicious. I just had a couple of tweaks to her recipe (but they are fine as written as well.)

Fish and Vegetables in Parchment

DH and I had a meal to fill on our weekly grocery list. Somehow a parchment meal was suggested and here we are. I used Dinner: A Love Story's directions for steamed fish in parchment paper. You don't really need a recipe for it but here one is if you're afraid to get creative.
