Today seemed to center around food. Katie, texted me early this morning with the suggestion to try Up All Night Bakery. She said it had some of the best pastries she has ever had. So, we went and got some pastries and then on the way home stopped at a fruit and veggie stand. We bought a few things including some blackberry jam. Then we went to Prairie Grain to get some more jam – this time plum and sour cherry. They have really good jam and I had planned on making bread today.
We did stop at an antique store before going home. Bethany loves antique stores. She looks longer than I do. I think she could spend an entire day looking around at all the stuff. I bought one old Christmas ornament – a vintage glass indented one. I like old Christmas ornaments and it’s never too early to buy them. Unfortunately, I could only find one today.
When we got home I made whole wheat bread and Zola made kimchi. I think kimchi smells terrible, but Zola and Bill really like it. My bread turned out really nice and we all had some with our new jam – the bread only lasts about an hour. Zola and I spent the afternoon in the kitchen and it was pleasant. She has been so busy lately we haven’t had a lot of time together so today was nice.
Then on our way home from church tonight we got Sweet Frog as it was No Weigh Wednesday. Basically, our day centered around food.
Your bread looks sooooo good! Nothing better than crusty bread.
Thanks, I have really enjoyed baking bread again. It had been years since I had baked any until recently.
