"Decoration" Letters...

The joys of keeping your children busy while trying to be productive. (now I know why my mom had me label so many food storage cans) I haven't made fresh wheat bread since before Adalyn was born -- pretty sad I know, but hit a sale before she was born and stocked the freezer. I decided it was time to get back in the habit -- so gave it a try while Mace was at preschool. Keston loved being the big helper and Sissy was so good to watch us and fall to sleep in her swing. Well, needless to say I didn't finish my three batches in time and Mace was pretty upset that he missed out on grinding the wheat -- so had to come up with a quick job....writing labels on the bags for the bread...that was perfect! Mace was so excited to use permanent markers and wrote each letter as I said them as I finished my last batch. Then he copied the letters to the next bags, this task got pretty monotonous quickly -- since after the second bag---he informed me he was only going to write one more. "This one I am going to use my decoration letters mom." Sure bud---what ever letters you want --- I just thought they were too cute, I love this big helper :)

Okay, domestic Queen!!! You can't post a story about homemade bread and not post a recipe. You could even email it to me.... but I gotta have it! I'm into bread making lately and I'm terrible, so I need to recipes to motivate me to try again. Also, you need to let me in on how you organize your time with 3! You're probably more even-keeled than I could ever be!
P.S. Ady is absolutely beautiful! She is so feminine! I love it!
