This was another bread-making experiment, and I have to say I was very pleased with the results! I was asked to make the communion bread for my church, and after a bit of searching I found a recipe that was exactly what I was looking for. I needed a bread that was easy, soft enoughRead more
I made this bread last week for School of Christian Living. It turned out so well I think I’ll be making it again for communion on Sunday. While this did take a long time to rise, I think the biggest problem is that my house is pretty chilly in the winter and I don’t haveRead more
Happy Halloween! To celebrate… more pumpkin!!! A year ago my aunt, Sharon, told Mom and me about this amazing recipe she made. It sounded delightful, but stuffing a pumpkin sounds kind of hard, so we didn’t ever get around to making it until now. And as I text Sharon, I kind of hate myself forRead more
I made this bread for church on Sunday. I loved it. Can’t wait to make it again. It conveniently makes 2 loaves, so you have one to share or one to freeze if you can’t eat two loaves of bread in timely manner (although this bread might set new standards). Apple Walnut Bread Makes twoRead more

Saturday Seekers had a day long Women’s Retreat. It was a wonderful gathering and I was delighted to make lunch for the event. I made Asian Cabbage Salad, an Edamame Dip and a Creamy Green Pea Dip. To go with it all I tried my hand at making Whole Wheat Pita. Making the pita wasRead more
