So while I was feeling somewhat chuffed about recent successes with bread making, I came across this lovely post on Friday. And by Saturday morning I was itching to try it. I had a jar of lemon curd sitting in my fridge calling me to bake it into a lovely bread braid. But alas, I had no flour. So I took myself into the garden
and lugged soil around to make my arms and back ache. I was really just trying to get my assortment of containers filled up and ready for planting.
But after some gardening and preschool soccer and a trip to the garden center and the grocery store (yes - I remembered to buy flour) I was too tired to bake bread. But yesterday I gave it a go.
Here are the pictures of the baked breads. Wider braid -
A bread of beauty! and the skinnier braid -
This reminds me of our cat, waiting to have her tummy rubbed! So skinnier isn't better, at least when it comes to bread. But delicious! Not too sweet, delicious, lemony bread. Perfect for breakfast or tea or brunch...(or maybe a post posting snack...). Try it!
And speaking of bread - here is tonight's version of oatmeal spelt bread. Sandwich or toast anyone?
