Project Name & Page Link: Peach Cobbler Jam
Brief Description: Need more energy? Well this sweet jam will give you a burst! I bought a box of peaches last weekend and used them up this week in various canning adventures. This is just like peach jam, but with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves added to it. I made it last year and it is soooo good! Especially on fresh baked biscuits.

Project Name & Page Link: Saffron white chocolate cornflakes tart
Brief Description:* My mom kindly gave me all the saffron she had (as in she bought it even though she doesn’t like making food). I realised when reading this prompt that I had not used it either, so this was the perfect opportunity. Ok, I couldn’t get the cornflakes to stick, so I transferred it to a pot instead. Because white chocolate is a bit too sweet for my taste I tried adding some orange peel and juice, which made it far nicer in taste I think.

Project Name & Page Link: Norwegian meatballs with gravy
Brief Description: This dish doesn’t look that amazing but I love the taste of the meatballs and the gravy. My trick to make the gravy is to add some Worcestershire sauce, chilli and a few bay leaves. I mean, it could have some steamed vegetables on the side, but I didn’t have them at the time so I ate it without those this time. Had I added vegetables then I would have added butter steamed broccoli and roasted carrots.

Project Name & Page Link: Apple Cake
Brief Description: My husband has been eating so many apples lately, that I’m buying them by the dozen. Sadly the fujis I picked up last week were mealy; not great for eating out of hand, but perfect for baking with. I found an apple bread recipe that used grated apples. But when I mixed it all up, there was too much batter to fit into the loaf pan the recipe called for, so I baked it in a glass baking dish to make a cake instead. I replaced half the AP flour with while wheat pastry, and used margarine instead of vegetable oil, since that’s what I had on hand. The streusel topping came out too buttery, and not dry enough, so I added in 1/4 cup of oats to it. And I skipped the icing, as the cake was sweet enough. My husband has been going through this cake like it’s his job.

You should definitely do a scrappy mask! I made a post about mine that shows how I made a panel out of scraps. But there are a million ways you could do it!

Headmistress Jennie casts the House Points Charm!
Headmistress Note: There was a typo in the Book Club prompt. It looks like I updated the actual prompt and its due dates, but neglected to change the chapter number & tittle. This has been fixed. Sorry friends.

Headmistress Question of the Day…
Yesterday I got to participate in the LC Zoom Meetup hosted by the lovely @geekgirl. There were so many people in the call, including our own @PrincessP, @Edel, and @Abbeeroad! (Seriously, Gryffindor was in the House!) It got me thinking that perhaps folks would like an HPC Virtual Meetup & Crafternoon Tea Party. Right now this is just a vague idea. I don’t have dates, times, or technological avenues decided yet. I created a short poll below so folks can vote on their interest.
- I would love to do one! No matter the time or tech avenue, I’m there.
- I would like to participate, but it depends on times, and if I have to download things.
- I might pop in if it happens, but might not.
- I’m not really interested in a virtual Meetup.

Hello Friends. Some sad news today. One of our Lettuce Craft family, and a former member of the HPC has passed away. Nathan (NathanielM93 on Craftster and Roots here on LC), was a member for several terms, and was such a joy within this Craftalong. He was funny, compassionate, and kind. He evidently convinced his mom to join our community, and she shared the sad news today on the last project he posted here. If you wish to read more or say something to his mom, you can check this page:
