* 2018-02-20 [https://vanillaandbean.com/potato-mushroom-pea-pierogies-vegetarian-vegan/ potato mushroom pea pierogies] 8x and [http://allrecipes.com/recipe/222427/sandys-sweet-slow-cooker-sauerkraut/ sweet sauerkraut] 2x a repeat with [http://www.thetummytrain.com/2012/09/22/flo-brakers-pull-apart-bread-in-herb-cheese-style/ pull-apart herb and cheese bread] and [http://www.eatingwell.com/recipe/252668/dried-apples/ dried apples].  The pierogies were great, but also huge amounts of work - and, about 2x too much stuffing for the amount of dough.  Would make again, if we have lots of labor, but cut the filling in half.  The sauerkraut was great, very sweet and mild, as intended, just like last time.  The pull-apart bread was AMAZING, would make again for sure.  The dried apples, disaster, I think the slices the peeler machine makes are about 2x too thick, so it took forever to dry (at least 4 hours), and honestly were not very good when done either.  Plus a lot more work than you'd think, with the manually drying off in paper towels.  Not going to try again, even though I really like dried apples...
* 2018-02-13 [https://minimalistbaker.com/vegan-roasted-red-pepper-pasta-gf/ roasted red pepper pasta] 4x a repeat, and [http://allrecipes.com/recipe/12682/apple-pie-by-grandma-ople/ apple pie] a repeat, and [https://cafedelites.com/easy-soft-chewy-chocolate-chip-cookies/ chocolate chip cookies].  The pasta, spicy and great, and easy to make.  The apple pie, amazing as usual, and it was super fun using the new peeler/corer machine (medieval torture device for apples).  The cookies, tasted great, but came out super pale, not sure what was up with that?

* 2018-02-06 [https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2835667/jerk-sweet-potato-and-black-bean-curry jerk sweet potato and black bean curry] a favorite, 2x and [http://foodviva.com/chinese-recipes/gobi-manchurian-recipe/ gobi manchurian] 2x, and [http://kitchenoverlord.com/dune-week-spice-filled-sandworm/ spice-stuffed sandworm bread], as well as some bread-maker bread made into garlic bread again.  The curry, awesome as usual, super delicious.  We added some cayenne to spice it up a bit.  The gobi was awesome, especially the full spice version, but it was also a multi-stage process to make, and hard to scale - 2x was just a side dish, and it's not clear how you would make more easily.  The sandworm looked AWESOME, totally worth making, and the bread was delicious too - kind of like a cinnamon bun, but less butter and more interesting spice flavor too.  Ours was fatter and shorter, and despite cooking it 10 minutes longer than recipe, we should have cooked it longer than that.  Would totally make again.
