I should be cautious when I say this, but I think this might actually be a normal week for us. (BAHAHAHAHA! Now that I’ve said it, we all know Murphy’s Law will go into full-force, and it will be anything but normal!)
I had some great success with newer recipes today (Saturday 5/7)… some of which will be posted to the blog soon (potatoes! health(ier) biscuits!). I also tried a new homemade bread recipe that was SO.MUCH.EASIER. Not to mention, I sliced the bread… and no crumbling. If you’ve been making bread by hand for any length of time, you know that this can be quite a feat.
Anyway, without much further ado…
