So, okay, as expected I have been doing a bad job of keeping up with all of this. So have a catch-up post with a lot of days smooshed together.
Day 7: Sausage, kale, red onion, and ricotta pizza: We had a couple of random cheeses left over from a calzone
oliviacirce made earlier in the week -- specifically some ricotta -- and so I made a pizza based on
this one from Smitten Kitchen. I adapted it by using crumbled Italian sausage instead of prosciutto (cheaper) and also by adding chopped raw kale to the ricotta mixture so that it cooked with the pizza.

Day 9: ---
Day 10: Baked a batch of raspberry ricotta scones based on
this recipe from the Smitten Kitchen cookbook. They turned out very deliciously -- so deliciously, in fact, that it appears I don't have a photo of them.
Day 11: I made a slow-cooker beef stew based on
this recipe (though I use my own blend of herbs and spices instead of onion soup mix). Since that got prepared in the morning, I had time to make these rosemary pull-apart rolls
Day 12: ---
Day 13: Today I really got to work on my lecture on the second part of Persuasion that I'll be giving tomorrow (!). I've been planning in part through the use of sticky notes and note cards on my closet door [
