God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
I obviously cannot change the fact that it is snowing, even though I am completely ready to see my daffodils peeking their heads through the cold earth. I am going to choose to use a bit of wisdom to recognize the "difference", quit my whining, smile, and......bake bread. :)
10- Grain Sandwich Bread,
made with 10-grain cereal and a little left over mashed potato for a nice moist crumb. It also has pumpkin seed, raw sunflower seeds and flax seeds mixed in. It is really good toasted. Trust me.Rosemary Potato Bread
I wish you were in my kitchen and could smell this. Fresh rosemary gently perfumes the entire loaf. I also used biga, a starter, that adds a wonderful depth to the flavor. It is amazing fresh out of the oven with its nice crispy crust (not the kind that rips up the roof of your mouth). I brushed it with a little olive oil right before putting it in to bake and voilà!
While I am enjoying my snowy day I might as well dig in and celebrate Fat Tuesday!
Pralines anyone?
Sweet salty yumminess wrapped around whole pecans.
Jumbalya for dinner. Bring your mask and beads!
