Our move to Maine marked the beginning of a new lifestyle for us. A simpler, more natural kind of existence. For me, this meant planting a vegetable garden, keeping chickens, and now, baking bread. I first tried my hand at this over the winter, and had mixed success. It seemed like way too much trouble and I just couldn't seem to get it right, so I gave up for a while. Then came our successful first attempt at canning. So I figured I should give the bread baking thing another try — after all, what's better than homemade jam on a warm slice of homemade bread?!
So, armed with a wonderful new bread book, I made my very first 100% whole wheat sandwich loaf. We couldn't wait to try it, and nearly destroyed my perfect loaf by cutting it before it was cool. But man, was that bread good.
Next, I'm learning how to knit.
