Why Your Teenager Can’t Use A Hammer

Why Your Teenager Can’t Use A Hammer

Skiing into Monday! It was a beautiful weekend her

Skiing into Monday! It was a beautiful weekend here despite the rain overnight. I took some time out from social and enjoyed time with my fam 🙂

What do you do for fun? or to relax? Cross country skiing is one of my life long loves, but baking sourdough bread is top of list as well.

Baking is part meditation, part observation and sometimes reaction. It can keep you on your toes, but also slows you down to appreciate the beauty of time. I also find that home baking gets you to find a balance between hands on and rest. The amazing part of leaving your dough for awhile to rest while you do something else (like skiing!) is that often you come back and it has transformed!

Hope you're baking something delicious this week 😍🍞

Loving the sun today! Hope it's sunny where you are 🙂 Spring really is coming. I can feel it in the dripping icicles, the return of the starlings, all the bird song and the sunlight on my face ☀️❤️

Have a great weekend- what are you baking?

Sometimes plain and simple is all you need for breakfast or a snack!

What's your favourite sourdough bread topping combo?

That moment when you open the lid of your dutch oven and see what happened!

Sometimes it can be nerve racking and other times you just know it's going to be so good 🙂 Great oven spring & defined score marks are two of the things you're looking for.

The steam releases and you put the it back in -lid off- to finish baking and develop the beautiful crust. See the second photo for the result!

Doesn't have to be perfect- but when you get pretty much everything just right it is soooo satisfying 🥰

Yesterday's home baked bread! I've been experiment

Yesterday's home baked bread! I've been experimenting with using a kitchen aid mixer to mix my dough this week, just to see how it works for dough with higher whole grain.

I usually use my hands to mix at home and that's what I teach in my courses and workshops, but it's nice to have a few different ways to do the same thing!

Do you want to know more about using a stand mixer for mixing your sourdough bread dough? Let me know!

Time to get back at it this week! Recipe testing,

Time to get back at it this week! Recipe testing, computer work (🤪), plus a snow day, making our long weekend even longer!

Putting together any of my courses and workshops takes a lot of behind the scenes work so that I can offer you the best experience possible!

This scene looks like what your kitchen could be when you take my online course! The comfort of your own home, a device to watch the videos, a physical notebook and a nice hot drink seems like a good combo to me. 🙂

Well, to be completely honest I'm not a V day fan, but I know lots of people are and who doesn't want an excuse to celebrate love and connection right now?!

Hope you had a day full of love no matter what it looks like to you. And if you didn't, that's ok. These two are my loves everyday of the year. ❤️😍
