Baking night tonight. New cinnamon roll recipe and new muffin tin (jumbo muffins). I suspect people at work will be happy for a early morning snack.
Tuesday will be muffins for the wife. She loves my oatmeal/bran mini muffins. I cheat there as she loves the bagged mix and I add extra oat bran for her.

I may play it again tonight and see if it saved my config changes.
