Lindt- about 10-15 + years ago used to be very good chocolate.  Now that's its successful and has stores everywhere the quality has dropped a great deal to the point where its chocolate is worse than Russel Stover

I really overate this weekend.  Ate mainly junk food:

 

an enormous, footlong meatball parm sandwich- quite good and felt guilty afterwards

The cucumber salad (on top of the Salmon)  is something I've eaten many times.  Salmon flakes are great.

No, it’s all done by hand.

did the center come out correct? 

 

I find that with breads sometimes the center comes out too wet or floury.  

 

I have a bread machine that I used only twice.  I didn't like the bread at all.

Yes, it came out great!

 

Of course it's a thing of practice (and also knowing your oven) to get it right.

@Matt! these are real meatballs.

 

The center isn't cooked cause they are put back in the gravy (sauce) to finish cooking and firming up is a by product too.

They are really good.

 

I am far from a chef and they would be insulted by my methods and techniques.

Who cares about the methods and techniques, all it matters is the outcome!
