egg bread vs. mixer

my beloved mixer...


kneaded my egg bread dough for about 5 or 6 minutes and threw in the towel
started smoking and emitting a terrible smell
I'll be calling Kitchenaid tomorrow :(

egg bread... for Easter!

the winner.
it just kept rising and rising... and rising
like it had something to prove


"probably the most beautiful thing you've ever made." - my husband

probably the biggest thing I've ever made... next time I cut the recipe in half.

for the birds!

we went to a little neighborhood festival this weekend and they had a "Make Your Own Bird Feeder" station. There was a really big jar of peanut butter there, so I had to check it out. This is what we left with...


a bagel covered in peanut butter and then dipped in different bird-friendly edibles. it's hanging in our back yard... at least it was before the storm tonight :/

post-wedding I can make and eat fun stuff again cheesecake...


this is why girls get fat after they get married.
new springform pans and kitchenaid mixer = sugary trouble.

an extra long run today??? I think so.
