Daily Notes- I can't believe it's Friday. We had rain overnight and this morning is humid already.


 Today's book.  Something light.  After the Fresh Water For Flowers.  Whoo.  The end......

Yesterday- as a thank you for the AC units-  we stopped to buy gluten free flour (after DQ) and I tried to make gluten free bread.  It was an excellent recipe from a good source.  It was strange.  But I just kept going.  It took longer because I didn't have enough instant yeast and had to use some regular.  And I don't have "baking bowls" because I have no idea which are oven safe.  So I used two identical little saucepans- stainless for the baking.  The loaves are small.  I tasted a section of crust that stuck to one pan- and the taste was good.  And they smelled really good- not like bread but- good.  Tasty smell. 

I don't have any preconceived notion that gluten free bread will be exactly like gluten bread. Close, I hope.

If  George likes it- I will make more with better flour and all instant yeast.

I wrapped them in parchment paper tied with white kitchen string.  And tucked the list of ingredients under the string.  I thought paper would keep the crust from getting too soft.  Daughter will stop by later today to pick them up.  Deliver them.  Let's all cross our fingers and hope the little loaves taste as good as they smelled.

It's cloudy, muggy.  Is that an Ohio weather term?  Muggy?

I have looked all over and my COVID mask is gone.  Lost.  Possibly dropped on the street while I was getting into the car.  I actually had misplaced and found it several times recently before the actual, final loss.  My friend drove the mask to our house one day......so I guess it's Fate.  I still go out and look in the car for it.  It would have been nice to have kept it to remind me of these 18 months of wearing it.

It definitely is an Ohio term, well understood as I live in Ohio too
