Artisan Bread

This bread comes from the book "Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day", which I have on order. This recipe from the book can be found online. This was so easy and the house smelled wonderful. It makes a big batch. You take what you want to bake and refrigerate the rest of the dough for up to 14 days. Barry liked it. [He ate half a loaf already]. I can't wait to get the book and try more recipes.

Small gifts...

... can be the sweetest treasures. There is something special about this little gift I received at Christmas, other than it came from a sweet friend. It is a tiny tea light holder. I enjoy using it daily with some of my favorite tea lights, like Sandlewood. Perhaps it reminds me of the joy I have watching the hummingbirds [and Orioles] that visit my feeders set out just for them. How long till Spring???

Breakfast!

The mind of a squirrel..


I smell BREAKFAST!


Hey lady, you're late!


Did you move it?


What's with the plastic?


Let's see what's on the menu!


Mmm! I'll just put my trash on the porch.

Guess he didn't mind that I recycyled this old tupperware into a feeding box for the winter.

Clay home for Christmas

What a joy to have Clayton home for 16 days at Christmas. That was the best present I could have!
