    Tiff, hope you get a QUIET evening. Other than grading some exams and baking a loaf of bread, I am being incredibly lazy today.

    I liked that for the "doing better" part. I hope she continues to improve, Stretchy.

    If we lived closer and didn't already have a cat, I'd grab one. Charlie would love a kitten. Charlie loves everything. He thinks our cat is supposed to be his playmate, but she's old and grumpy and seldom wants to play with him. On the rare occasions she will, he is one happy dog. They say...

    Chickens are everywhere around these parts. I feel odd not having any chickens. Maybe I can get Charlie to lay eggs. *pondering*

    FV, I posted a rye recipe for you to try. It's one I've always liked a lot. Stretchy, I'm making the Shredded Wheat Bread recipe from that book today. That one is a favorite of mine. You should try it if you like whole wheat bread. If you do it all the way in the bread machine I would suggest...

    Good morning, posse. I'm hopelessly behind! Took today off so I could catch up a bit and have an actual weekend. FV, I'll check and see if I have a good strong rye bread recipe. I love the stuff too. I have a good black bread recipe, but it's more a pumpernickel and has a lot of ingredients...

    I would love to try the spearmint eucalyptus as well, Sallie. I really like that combination (don't tell anyone in case they try to revoke my man card).

    Doggone it, you stumbled onto it on your own. The meaning of life IS getting the rolls done at the same time as the ham. I'm trying the same thing here today. I predict you will be more successful than I will. ;)

    Couldn't like working on your day off, but the extra money always comes in handy.

    Good thing Victor did not like pickled eggs. Cooked eggs make dogs quite gassy. Eeew... Don't ask me how I know. :facepalm: Good for you for refusing to work Easter. You are a wise witch doctor. What you missed: We discovered the meaning of life. We posted it. We changed our minds and...

    Wow Sallie, you do beautiful work. If they smell as good as they look, you should be in business.
