Several shades of White. My loaf for the week. It's finally done with it's many hours of rising and now in the oven @ 450. Thirty minutes with the lid and 15 minutes without.
Overcast beginning to the day with moments of sunshine. Feels cold in the house and warmer outside. I am bringing the Attic Bathtub Plants downstairs today and out onto the front- north facing porch. Get them used to natural outdoor light gradually and then out back for southern sun in a day or two. Would be nice if we had a light rain. Soak them.
The greenhouse where I worked for over 10 years is allowing 15 people inside at a time, with masks. So I think I might go visit. They have "cold crops" like broccoli and cabbage already in little starter flats and possibly some herb flats. Pansies. Which the deer eat. Deer ate that little columbine I transplanted from the raised bed garden to the front beds. I really, really do not like deer.
Would be nice to get my containers ready for the season if they have what I want. Like by Mother's Day and not in July. I was always late in getting things going for myself while planting things for customer orders. Nothing has changed. I am still running late.
My library will accept returned books by last name. My day to return books is May 14th. They are expecting to deliver reserve books curbside starting June 1. Wow!!!! I have some good books on reserve. A friend went to the Dollar Store this morning and picked up things for herself and a few word search books for my husband. Which was very thoughtful of her. He's just gone out to the mailbox to get them. Three, I think. He likes them.
And timer went off- 15 minutes minus the lid. Bread looks very nice- larger than when I made with Gold Metal flour. King Arthur this time. I also have a recipe for Naan flatbread which I am going to try as well. Something soft and bendable. But am thinking of a poached egg on a toasted piece of the big loaf. I really love poached eggs but never make them. Why is that?????
Well, husband is off to do "men's work" whatever that means. I guess I'll start doing some "women's work" and that means whatever I want it to means.

NAAN!!!!yes!!!!!
i will follow closely
Poached eggs are delish. Soft boiled too. Both make me think of my mother. I need to see if any local growers are doing same. I ordered from Select Seeds and White Flower Farm. Real indulgences.
Poached eggs on a charred piece of Italian bread is my favorite breakfast.
