Meredith made white-bean eggplant bruschetta (presumably) inspired by this(Need to double check)

We had friends over and made some small bites. We were going to buy "Fiesta Dip" at the grocery store when Meredith realized it was really nothing special and made her own with canned refried beans. For the sour cream, she mixed a bit of taco seasoning into it.
We also made Southern Banana Pudding with that recipe. It did git a little bit burned at the top (cooked it in the toaster oven could be why). Also, we used generic vanilla wafers. I do not know if that was the cause or something else but they all disintegrated into it. Still tasty but not ideal

Meredith made meatloaf from Ottolenghi Simple except replaced the lamb with lean ground beef. She also minced the tomatoes on top instead of grating it (we tried but it didn't work). And she did do the veggies by weight!
It was actually pretty good. It didn't hold together as much as you would expect, probably from the liquid in the veggies, but tasted great. And smelled really good while cooking too. Also worked very well to be prepared ahead of time!

We were going to have something else (see meatloaf) but ran out of time so we threw this together. Smoke Brisket Hotdogs and some kind of Jalapeno sausage. Meredith made spring peas and we also had a bagged salad. Pretty simple and actually really tasty

Simple and quick Thai curry made with jarred paste and canned coconut milk. It needed more flavor (especially the tofu) but we still enjoyed it. And it was very simple

Meredith's notes with annotations and links:
Cannelés: followed pink books instructions [Patisserie ( LOCAL)], subbing Bulliet bourbon for the brandy. Made batter Saturday, and let it rest until Tuesday afternoon. Followed Eat Little Bird's instructions ( LOCAL) for baking in silicone which included heating the molds for 4-5 min at 430°F. Then pour the batter into hot molds and cook for 15 min. Then lowered to 375 for 1hr 12 min.

Meredith made a Bakewell Tart using Mary Berry's Recipe (LOCAL) but with Pâte Sablée from The Kitchn ( LOCAL). The biggest change to the recipe was to use Heidi's Raspberry Lavender Jam from a local place. Also, she used red food coloring which really worked just fine!
She's still experimenting with the crust but may try Mary's next time.
We really liked it overall and it was pretty well received!

Pretty typical lemon-garlic shrimp except I forgot all seasonings. I think I missed the crushed red pepper the most (shrimp are pretty salty on their own)
