i repeatedly set off my smoke alarm tonight, even though the apartment never seemed smoky. something about roasting at 450 degrees must have made it unhappy. the results were quite tasty, accompanied with parmesan polenta & broccoli. for dessert, i modified an applesauce spice cake recipe by swapping out half the flour for whole wheat, adding dates, and inventing a maple orange ginger glaze to replace the cream cheese frosting the recipe called for.
