Lets start with Bread

I finally made my own bread. Luckily Don loves it - he is a white bread eater. I have made several loaves since this one but this is my first attempt photographed.

I make a new loaf every second day, which is hard to do as you have to have 8-10 min to knead it without interuption which is a little difficult at times. But it feels good.

New adventures (at home)

Time has flown since my last post -well, wish I could post a little more often in 2008 . Now that Christmas is over and we seem to be at home more often (well thats the plan) hopefully at least once a week I will post - oh yeh and start giving out my blog soon as the only people that know it exists is my lovely sister.

Start sewing clothing for Abetha
Finish Dons Scarf and knit something a little more adventurous
