Improvisional baking

[jethrien]

We had a bunch of random ingredients left in the fridge that needed eating so we could fit useful food in - half a can of pumpkin, half a carton of sour cream, a single egg white, etc. I have managed to combine these things (along with the remnants of packages of pecans and chocolate chips in the cabinet) into a delicious pumpkin bread of my own devising (combination of Joy of Cooking's pumpkin bread and chocolate chip sour cream cake, my mother's zucchini bread, and several modifications of my own). Successfully finishing pumpkin, sour cream, egg white, pecans, and chocolate chips! Triumph!

You had saved a single egg white?

We had needed a single egg yolk for the perfect chocolate chip cookies yesterday. Why waste the white? (If she hadn't used it for this, I'd have scrambled it with another egg and eaten it for breakfast.)
