We are finally getting rain. The last few days it's been around 18 degrees celcius. Not sure what that is in Fahrenheit. But it's warmish. <br /><br />That's nice looking bread.

I found that King Arthur makes a flour that has no wheat in it but you can only make quick breads with it, won’t work with yeast. I’m thrilled to have banana bread and pumpkin bread, though, after years without any bread!

I do not spray anything in my dutch oven at all. The bread doesn't stick. I use Jenny Can Cook's recipe for one loaf...easy peasy. I make the dough, put a towel over it and let it sit overnight on top of the frig and bake it the next day when I feel like it...no fuss, no muss! www.self-sufficientsam.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18065860466566055543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-57337446664517257832020-10-19T09:16:21.467-05:002020-10-19T09:16:21.467-05:00Sorry about the bread mishap.

It feels cold enough to snow now, but we just had rain last night. Temps predicted to be in the teens later this week. It sure seems early for all of this, but it's probably normal. I've just forgotten what. normal is. <br />Dennis and Larry have been outside putting foam board insulation behind the RV skirting yesterday and this afternoon.

Now that I'm older... ugh. Not handling cold and snow and ice and chilly winds very well anymore. Ah, aging.

Well, not about the mess you had to clean up. Poppy would have said, why would you want to try all that when you can buy frozen bread. Oh, Cee Cee is adorable. Your post with the booties.

Winter is with us today too, although we do not have snow. Yesterday I worked outside and it was 70 degrees and very windy. Today is cloudy and the high is in the low 40's. I love home made bread but I have been known to get the frozen dough. In fact we get the Rhodes frozen rolls a lot because you can just take out a few when it's just the two of us.
