• April 13th Photo-A-Day BROWN!!

    Homemade bread

    My streak of Photo-A-Day still going strong! Since March 1st. I pick between several different Challenges that are posted on Pinterest. I pick and choose so suit my whim. HA! It pays to be the Mamma Peanut! Sarah, you said you needed the recipe for my bread. My amazing, make the house smell divine! So easy NO knead bread. So I picked BROWN for my photo. Along with my bread recipe!! How pretty is this bread!?!?  The taste and the smell is even better! Ohhh but so pretty!! Crunchy BROWN crust and tender inside. YUM!! This recipe needs two very important things. INSTANT yeast. Double triple check that it says INSTANT I now have a large jar of regular yeast = I guess traditional bread making is in my future soon.  Second important item to have is heavy Dutch Oven. I grabbed mine at Walmart under $40 and it’s RED!!! It’s also already well loved! Day one mix the following: 3 cups All purpose flour ½ tsp Instant yeast 3 tsp garlic powder  NOT the salted kind.  This is just an addition I make because I love garlic bread. You can even add more if you are looking for stronger garlic flavor.…

The entire month of March I dedicated to my amazing craft-room. It’s HUGE!!!! It’s also very chaotic at times. Okay most of the time, let’s not dwell on the mess! I actually prefer to call it a creative process.  I like that! I’m going to keep using it. Aside from scaring several people with my mess, the sheer size of the room or the dolls. Soooo sorry Heather! Guess I should have put a warning before the pictures of Suzy?? So today I’m trudging up 17 stairs for a picture From The Kitchen. Soooooooo y’all know me I couldn’t decide if that was a picture standing in the kitchen?  Something I MADE in the kitchen? Look OUT from the kitchen. Gesh!! Inside my head is such a FUN place to be!! So, I did a little of each. Standing in my kitchen which is on the main floor; is the kitchen, dining-room and family room. So these are pictures of my kitchen. Still not done.…
