Morning Labors

Busy morning in my kitchen! Got the leg of lamb on the smoker a bit after 7 a.m. This will be my first time to try lamb. Then I mixed up a double batch of ciabatta (glass bowl). That was a big hit this week and Vince & Chad have been asking for more. It takes two days to make that though so the sponge will sit til tomorrow when we can have fresh ciabatta. Today we'll have butter crescent rolls (in the bright blue bowl). Then I roasted broccoli for the broccoli/pasta salad. Carrots are simmering now for the carrot souffle. Somewhere in there I fixed bisuits, sausage, gravy and eggs for breakfast. The kitchen is about as clean as it's going to get for now so I plan to spend the afternoon sewing.
