This week is whizzing past way too fast, and I’m still chasing my tail, way behind on my scheduled editing and blogging. Here we are in Thursday, the one day a week I share what I’ve baked… and I baked nothing 
So instead, I’m going to cheat since it’s my blog, and share with you some wonderful photos of delicious bread my mom baked in the wood fire oven my dad made… yep, he’s very hands on and creative when it comes to building almost anything.
Enjoy! (more…)

I love rainy days. The clouds are plump and gray, and ready to drench us. It’s been like this most of this week.
So I try and sit down to write. Usually the rain and cold are conducive to writing, but not today. I keep thinking about a block in my world setting for my current novel, and how to expand it further, not to mention the trickle effect it will have on my entire novel. Eeeekkk I don’t want to think about it, so I’m going to bake something to clear my thoughts.
French baguettes are my choice today. They are comforting, plus sumptuous with scrambled eggs for breakfast the next day. I cheat by using a bread machine, but this is easily done by hand as well. If you’re interested, email me and I’ll send you the details.
Give it a go and you’ll be surprised how quick and simple they are to make, not to mention yummy. Let me know how your baguette turns out.
