Allways ready for some intertainment.

I have spent the day coloring in pictures I drew of the outside of my daughters house. Only way to get an idea of what some different colors would look like. I drew it once then copied it.

What a good idea, Spunky!

Did she settle on a color? I hope you don’t have to do any actual house painting!

I spent the day at the dentist and then grocery stores. I’m cheap enough that I go and pick what I want at each store. Got some shrimp for $4 a pound! I couldn’t pass that one up. Sam’s Club usually has the best lettuce. And Aldi’s has staples, I stocked up on flour because I’m trying to learn to make French bread. Again. I have enough bread crumbs so I hope I actually figure it out this time.

My plan is typically to learn how to make something with white flour. And vital wheat gluten and barley malt. Then I move to whole wheat, to see how much whole wheat can I get away with. I would love to make a whole wheat ciabatta but I can’t seem to get those big holes once I go past more than a little bit of whole wheat.

I didn’t know you were an artist! That’s a pretty neat skill to have.

What colors did you decide you like best?
