One good, one bad--bread, that is.

Well, I baked two loaves of wheat bread today. The first one was honey wheat & oat bread. I mixed the dough in the bread machine, then put it in a stone to bake. Came out great.

While the first one was baking, I made a whole wheat loaf in my bread machine. While it was baking, DH was using a nail gun in the next room, and, you guessed it, my bread fell. There is a huge sink hole in it. Not sure what I will do with it, but...

Oh, well. I guess I'll have to try again when he is not home. :o)

Our Field Trip

Friday we went to Falls Mill in Tennessee with about 40 of our homeschool friends. We had a great time. After lunch, DH and the boys played in the creek, despite the snakes. I couldn't stand the thought of the snakes, so I went shopping.

I loaded up on the fresh flour and corn meal that is ground at the mill. I enjoy baking our own bread (although I cheat a little and buy frozen dough), but I want to start making the bread from scratch. So, in comes the stone ground whole wheat flour, but I will probably make it easy and use my bread machine <:o) We'll see how it goes.
