Bread

I never liked cooking. I still love to go out to eat, I never get tired of it. But now after being married 15 years I am starting to get the hang of cooking (meaning I'm starting to not burn everything and I'm making more things from scratch!!!) and actually enjoying it. Thanks to a few friends and the Food Network.

I just read this post http://suzannemcminn.com/blog/2007/12/19/the-keeper-of-the-bread-2/ and it made me want to blog about baking bread.

I was an art major in college. My favorite class was pottery using the wheel. I loved creating pots with my hands. Even though I loved it I didn't have the discipline to get good at it and I always felt like I was creating more clutter. I guess I'm too practical to be a true art major. Anyway! Now I find my satisfaction in weeding and planting lettuce which is another post all together. Most recently, this past year, I have found immense satisfaction in baking bread. So far I only have one recipe http://busycooks.about.com/od/yeastbreads/r/honeywheatbr.htm that has turned out great every time.

Here is what I want to try next: http://www.motherearthnews.com/Real-Food/Artisan-Bread-In-Five-Minutes-A-Day.aspx
