Sunday Morning

Sunday morning and it gray outside.  Today is bread baking day, I bake bread every Sunday for the week.  I know for some of you it sound like a big deal but I was a pro baker for many years and I have a Kitchen Aid which makes the whole process a breeze. I have been using this old french bread baking book that I got years ago.  I have also been using the white bread recipe out of the Joy and adding whole wheat and rye flours, I am lucky enough to have the grain grinding attachment for my Kitchen aid so I can grind my own grain. ( A birth git from my Daughter and Husband).  I don't know about you the a half gallon of local organic Milk is $4.29. Its great it comes in a glass bottle and is from on a couple hours away.  So anything I can do to cut our costs is good and making bread is so easily and really doesn't take that long.  

I have also been getting into using my slow cooker.  As a kid I remember my Mom cooking in one and it being kind a gross.  The meat and Potatoes.  Well I have an 11 year old vegetarian ( I was a Vegetarian for about 12 years) so We are eating less meat.  The slow cooker is great for make bean soups and stews with hard veggies. 

I have take apart the felted bag that I started working on and am starting it over again. I will post photos when I get it done.

The series is coming along.  I really like the image that I have posted for today.
