Here’s where to find all the content for Lost Supper Club members.

A while back, a few of you reached out to tell me that you love to bake (on occasion) but were frustrated with the yield of most recipes. Someone said, “I’d sometimes like to make 8 cookies, not 48.”

I get it. But I’m not good at it.

I am notorious for making too much of everything. If you come to my house for dinner, I’m liable to treat the occasion like I’m cooking for you and 12 of your neighbors, even though your neighbors aren’t invited. Of course, if you were to bring your neighbors, I’d cook for all of you plus 47 unexpected guests because, you know, just in case.

When our kids were teenagers and brought their friends home constantly, this was not a problem. But it’s just the two of us now so I need to get that shit under control.

I do think I’m getting a tiny bit better about not overdoing it. Kinda sorta. Baby steps.

So you can see why the suggestion of a small batch baking series appealed to me, even though it goes against my nature. Sometimes we need a reason to go against our nature. Some people call this growth.

So, here’s where we are so far…

• Cherry Oatmeal Almond Cookies (Makes 6 cookies)

• Cobbler for Two!

• Chicken Pot Pie for Two!

And now, coconut cream pie for two! Honestly this pie can easily serve 4, but I’m saying it serves two so that you have some leftovers. If I go to the effort of making a pie, I’d like to eat it today and tomorrow.

But, of course, you can also share your pie with two other people you love. Which is exactly what most of you are prone to do, because I’ve met quite a few of you and you are generous like that.
