WHO BREAD.

Thanks to Rhonda-Jean posting a link tosoulemama's blog I now have a loaf of who bread in the oven, it smells devine. I used the bread machine to mix the dough, taking it out before the rising started. Put it in a bowl, covered it and took it out to the car, which was the warmest spot I could think of. An hour later I punched down a well risen bowl of dough. Transferred it to a lightly oiled baking tin and put it in warm spot in the family room for another hour.

Haven't been doing any sewing or craft over the past few days, have been working on my sewing/craftroom. I've been sewing on the dining room table because the room was in such a mess. I decided that one of the cupboards in there could go into the kitchen to replace one that was too big to go next the fridge. It was too big in the first place, David just turned it sideways which meant I couldn't use the cupboard but could throw things through a gap onto the upper shelves. Getting stuff out was another story, I asked him to put wheels on which he actually bought but never got around to putting on. Doesn't need to do it now. I moved the cupboard out of the craftroom but had to get his help to move the other in, it's heavy. Tonight I will get in there and do some more, the desk and table needs clearing off and I'll be able to put the machine and overlocker back in place.

Right now I have an urge to do some embroidery, nothing elaborate I have a christmas stitchery that's been sitting there for 2 christmases but I'll have to locate the stitching chart for it. I'm thinking of pulling out some linen and finding a quick and easy niave design. Actually I am thinking about making some cushions for the solarium, I tossed out the old ones (saved the zippers) when they started falling to bits, there's still one or two laying around with torn seams spilling lumpy stuffing out. There's only so many times you can restitch something before throwing your hands up in disgust. And that goes for pulling the lumps in the stuffing apart as well.

I'm being very good I got the bread out of the oven while I was working on this message and I've let it stand resisting the urge to cut a slice, I'm about to give in to the urge. But first I need to bring the laundry off the line, just heard thunder and I don't want to leave it til just before the storm hits.

Brought in the washing, it's finishing up in the dryer, even if it doesn't rain it wasn't going to get any dryer outside now. Emptied the kitchen bins as well before washing my hands and cutting into the bread. The results are in, Cassie was first to taste, "it tastes like hot cross buns", got a thumbs up from Thomas and David said it was very nice. David usually hates homemade bread because he can taste the yeast, but there is no yeast taste to this. Very Yummy.
