Watercolor Wednesday

June 5, 2019 By Carole

Yesterday was a . . . day. There were meetings, some on the awkward side, and emails and surveys and end of fiscal year tasks, and more. All of which is to say that my creative energy was rather sapped when it came time to write a blog post.

So, I’m phoning this one in with a watercolor of last Sunday morning’s breakfast tray. Two cups of coffee, two egg sandwiches, and some honeydew melon chunks.

Is it Friday yet?

    Sorry to hear that Not Quite Friday was one of THOSE days. Thanks for simultaneously entertaining us with a watercolor and giving my morning toast something to aspire to. Wishing you a better day today.

    Friday’s coming SOON! …and I love how purposeful you are about serving your meals. Of course the food you prepared looks delicious, but putting the plates on a pretty tray with a napkin folded just so really makes it special 🙂

    On days like that I have conversations in my mind where I say what I really wanted to say out loud, and I often feel better. Some day I’m afraid my make-believe conversations will slip out of my mind and out of my mouth, making everything even more awkward. Congratulations on not doing that, and I hope today is a better day!

    I am with you… jonesing for the weekend and irritated that it is *just* Wednesday! May your week’s downhill days be without bumps!

    You know you actually could just skip a post and everyone would understand, Carole, but you are your own worst taskmaster. Thanks for the watercolor, and I hope today is not a continuation of yesterday. Hang on, Friday’s coming!

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
