5 Things Today
• Cranking my music to help get my mind going (creative juices flowing).
• Doing a load of laundry and dishes while I'm working. (I love it when I can multi task my work projects and home needs. I feel like I'm actually getting things done!)
• Drawing sketches of baby animals, in a caricature / cartoon style (for the project bid I won).
• Happy. My best good friend, (J's cousin) just called a little while ago.
• Getting ready to bake some homemade bread. The first attempt. Hopefully not the last.
ETA:
The bread tastes great, but after following the directions that told me to - "let it proof once for 1 hour after kneading, and then another hour in the loaf pan" - it fell.
Bummer. I'll try again with a different recipe and set of instructions.

I seriously have to crank up the tunes when i am working!!?!?! Good luck with your bread!
I have to crank the music, too!
I found a really good recipe on www.allrecipes.com called "Amish White Bread". I mixed it in my Kitchenaid mixer, which made it super easy! It is one of their top 20 rated recipes, so I thought it couldn't be bad! I think I decreased the sugar to 1/2 cup, based on other people's reviews. Good luck with your recipe, too!
Massive amounts of butter kills most bread woes.
hehe.
Here to help.
