Baking Bread!

Published November 7, 2020 by tindertender

A couple weeks ago I decided to start baking bread for the house rather than purchasing it. I had a couple failures which were disappointing, but then … this happened! And my oh my was it delicious! It was dinner AND a midnight snack … haha … I woke the next morning to discover half of one loaf gone! Yum.

Today I tried a new recipe. Going to see my father this afternoon and take him a loaf of fresh bread and a jar of peach marmalade I canned last year.

My first attempt at Challah bread. Need to work on my braiding skills. Smells fantastic!

The house smells wonderful! Once this cools a bit I’ll wrap it a go to dads. Hopefully it will stay warm for his enjoyment.

The chimney sweep was here today so my fireplace is all prepared to get “lit”. My father is giving me some nice firewood today so tonight it’s going to be all cozy in here!

Laundry is nearly done.

A nice bath will be happening later with magnesium flake and essential oils.

Aaaaahhhh … the sweet life!

Thank you Creator for blessing me with this day. I am thoroughly enjoying myself.

((((Hugs)))) friends. Be well. We’ll all get through these times. Let us be certain we do it in a good way.

There is no completeness without sadness and longing, for without them there is no sobriety, no kindness.

Wisdom without kindness, and knowledge without sobriety, are useless.

A Wonderful Day

Cleaning and burning … offering tobacco and sage to Grandfather and Grandmother, thanking Creator for such a lovely day.

Pizza was delivered, and it arrived piping hot! I was impressed at the heat of it and grateful the pizza place is right up the road and they were not too busy. Desert is here too, a chocolatey peanut buttery brownie!

The Fire Spirits are very good at keeping me company. Why, just being able to tend their fire brings a smile to my face and happiness to my heart.

Cleaning the roof wasn’t as dangerous as I had anticipated. Glad I shed the pounds making it easier to maintain balance up that high.

Oooohhhh, I do not want to go in. My fingernails are dirty, my face is too. Need a shower, but the warm breeze is rustling through the leaves … such beautiful music to my ears.

This day, the 8-8 Lions Gate, is a potent day. I spent my time focusing on being positive … however, those pesky negatives tried their mightiest to infiltrate my peace.

Fortunately, just being aware of it, and then choosing a different thought … overriding the uncontrolled dribble that sometimes speaks from the subconscious, makes it easier … this awareness.

And then, I sing a little silly diddy.

Having fun.
