Eye Candy Friday

April 17, 2015 By Carole

First of all, thank you all for your kind words of encouragement and support yesterday regarding Bob’s illness. I truly felt lifted up and I know it was from the power of collective prayer and good thoughts. And believe me when I tell you that Bob truly appreciates this. He told me that the prayers, encouragement and support he gets is not only compelling but also inspirational. So, again, on behalf of Dale and I and Bob and his family — thank you.

purple crocus for carole knits

Today’s Eye Candy is brought to you by spring. Yes, it’s finally here and the crocus are blooming, the daffodils are ready to pop, and there are loads of green shoots coming up in my perennial bed. Hooray!

Finally, the time has come for me to say hooray for Mexico! Behave yourselves while I’m gone, mmmkay? And I’ll catch up with you all on the 27th.

Adios!

If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good for, it’s my sourdough game. I actually started learning about making sourdough bread a week before the stay at home orders thanks to @sprboston as he shared his starter and recipe and technique with me. Since then I have kept Mama Cass fed and alive and have baked many loaves of bread. This one might be my best one yet. I did the final proof in the fridge for 24 hours and baked it from its cold state. Great spring and ear and crumb, it was delicious with dinner tonight. #sourdough #sourdoughbread #lookatthatcrumb #lookatthatear #homebakedbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest
