Bread and other random photos

Sssshhh, the baby is sleeping

I'm standing (sitting) guard!
This is taking AGES to rise - the house wasn't quite warm enough so we turned on the oven to heat up the kitchen!

Pretty impressive

And the smell is SO GOOD!!

I'm keeping guard (yes, again) so the cat doesn't touch the delicious bread!)

When I wasn't looking someone took a slice:(

This is the bread recipe I use - it works all the time: link
(I mix wholemeal flour with the white flour and increase the water slightly)

Wanted to show you where I live.

I have blurred the faces of the family next door, they didn't want to be identified. But between you and me - they are Mr and Mrs Russian Doll-Measuring-Cup family, they have one child.

The marigolds added colour to my garden for 5 months, but sadly with the 2 weeks of heavy frosts they have all died, so now I can plant bulbs - I think I will do a mix of tulips and jonquils. Firstly I will add some more organic soil to the pot.

Winter is upon us - the last of the leaves are clinging to the trees.

Charlie looking very regal.
She still doesn't have anything nice to say to Ruby!
