It's been awhile since I've been here. I had the worst summer ever. All my chickens caught some respiratory thing that is making its way through North Texas and had to be culled. I tried two different meds, and neither worked. It was awful!! :hit I'm letting the area sit to disinfect until...

I've been playing with some new flour that is a heritage, hard red wheat, and has 16.5% protein. Love it! 100% sourdough bakes. No commercial yeast. I've also been trying out some different roll recipes. Also playing with gluten-free, making progress. :)

Thank you It really wasn't that hard. You just have to be quick!

I got new chicks, and my big girls are laying eggs. :) I did lose my cream legbar to some wicked respiratory thing that killed her in less than 48 hours. I did save her eggs though. Cream legbar, Welsumer, Olive Egger New babies. Mystery bantam from Ideal. FBCM, and Cream legbar -...

I made black once, and flavored it with anise for halloween cat cookies for my son's kindergarten class. The kids that did eat them, had black teeth for the rest of the day. :) Pretty! I love that show! I also have the master classes that tell how to make all the challenges.

Black is a hard one. I always bought black frosting when I needed it.

Use gel coloring for your color. If you are making it red, get Tasteless Red. I would make a thick glaze if you want to pour it. Powdered sugar, a little butter (or butter flavored Crisco since it doesn't really get that soft at room temp), and a bit of milk. Add the milk a little at time...

It's a wheat flour starter. Very strong. Lovely flavor. I made the gluten-free one using fruit water (apple) to get it going. I feed it brown rice flour mixed with oat flour, and plain filtered water now. All the rest of my starters were given to me.

Mine are from all over the world, and one is gluten-free for my customers that want gluten-free bread. Each one is different - flavor, and behavior. I have one that is dried, that I don't use. I don't like it. My favorite one is from Israel.

I haven't been on here lately. Here are some of my latest bakes. And my very first pullet egg from my cream legbar, Olive. :) Sourdough breads. Two varieties. Sourdough cinnamon raisin bread. I thought I'd try golden raisins this time. I like dark raisins in it better. ;) I made...

Oh wow! I have 7 or 8 starters in my fridge. Can't imagine life without them.

I haven't used it, but I've seen breads baked with it online (fb bread group). I don't remember what the person said about it. The bread looked good though.

Gluten-free sourdough. Waiting for it to cool to check out the crumb. Heart for V-day, but should have done a simple slash.

I've found there are copy cat recipes for just about everything these days. Google what you are trying to replicate, and you may find the recipe.

My mom spoke Swedish before English. My boyfriend lives in Sweden too. I have them to practice with. :)

I haven't heard that one yet. Funny!

Jag lär mig svenska. My morfar (grandfather on mother's side) was from Norway, and my mormor (grandmother on mother's side) was from Sweden. Minnesota is called the Land of 10,000 Swedes. ;) Really it's 10,000 lakes....

:) I am Swedish. I used to live in Minnesota, but live in Texas now. Like the winters here much better. ;)

Thank you. :) I know a few people that always buy two loaves from me. One for the trip home, and one for at home. ;) Thank you :)

Thank you :) It is Swedish: East West Home is Best. In other words, there's no place like home.
