Over the weekend, I tried out making butterscotch pudding:

It was tasty. Moderate sweetness, which is good. I don't think I'd every made pudding not from a mix before. Ingredients were less unhealthy than I had expected. Not hard! I should remember not to use a nonstick pot, so that I can apply whisk vigorously without worrying about damaging the coating. When it gelled, there were small blobs of more firm pudding inside the pudding. I wish more had gotten that firmer texture, but the softer was good too.
I made a small batch of bread pudding with artichoke hearts, green olives, and sundried tomatoes. No recipe, and I just hope the flavors came out ok.
Also a new loaf of bread machine bread, house recipe.
And a batch of soft pretzels from scratch: http://boingboing.net/2014/11/15/soft-pretzels-are-easy-to-bake.html They were pretty yummy, but they stuck to the parchment paper badly. If I make them again, I guess I would flour the paper or something like that.
Oh yeah, and a big saute pan full of chili. Roughly based on

but with only two [kinds] beans, and adding TVP, mushrooms, carrots, potatoes. This is a recipe I've made my own.
Then we ordered take out pasta.
