I did it! I baked bread!
Tore it open to see if it was edible…and then ate it! Yes, this will be part of my cooking skills set…not perfect, but edible and delicious! I found the recipe following Natasha’s Kitchen videos that @Abbeeroad posted for something else…lol
Cooking is anxiety provoking for me, so this is my thing today…time for a nap!

I was looking for a bread that would be good with soups since my hubby makes the best soups. This would definitely work as it is dunkable…oh yum…and quite easy to make but a bit time-consuming…just waiting for it to rise, etc. I like @edel’s idea of making it night and letting it rise overnight…might try that next…
Jim went out right after the tp shortage and bought something like eight bags of flour and tons of yeast…this is the first time I have made bread with these supplies…I want to use them up before they go bad, so I will make some and freeze them for future use, but nothing smells like fresh bread!

It looks really fancy and expensive! Maybe I’ll try this one next.

Only uses flour, water, salt and yeast! I can’t stop eating it…I probably could make myself sick and eat the whole thing…lol

I don’t know that I could stitch with the pattern on the back like you do. My brain hurts just thinking about it!

Thanks! I can only take credit for buying them. The colors are the ones in the pattern design and are definitely the reason I bought it… in 2015! I’m glad to be working on it finally.

I finished the scarf, but still have this much yarn left in these colors. I guess I’ll try to make a matching hat then see where I am before maybe adding fringe.

Nice work…and blending those colors together makes it interesting…I am sure he is going to like it…it would be nice if you could get a hat out of what is left as well…

Not much craft mojo today, but managed a simple valentines card for a friend - he wanted something cute for his daughter to give her mum. But forgot to take a photo first 
And a bit more on my cross stitch

Well, it didn’t work out:
Probably due to a couple of things:
- it’s quite cold here so I already noticed before baking that it didn’t look like bread dough is supposed to look after proofing
- I used a written out recipe and it seems some details are slightly different from the video
So, I’m going to try again, this time following the video exactly and putting the pan in the warmest place in the house. I did see some activity, so the yeast is not dead. It has a good crust too so I’m not giving up on this recipe just yet.

Last night I made some more little heart booklets. I have them at school today so that my students can pick one out and decorate it if they would like. I’m thinking I might have to make a few more to send as valentines to a couple friends. (Well late valentines)

It looks like it needs at least another 20 mins baking, I wonder if it was really cold going in, it might have needed longer
