Eye Candy Friday

April 10, 2020 By Carole

Here’s a pretty purple pansy for you. Those little faces are smiling up at me from my window boxes and they fill me with joy.

And, you know, even with a weird work schedule I’m always happy to see Friday arrive. It’s the weekend and it’s Passover and Easter and we’re all trying to find new ways to deal with that. I wish you joy as you figure it out this weekend, friends.

See you on Monday.

    “Happy weekend”, is almost always appropriate. Make it a good one.

    Love the pansys. Successfully baked hot cross buns, a goal of mine for a long time. We will have a very different weekend, and find ourselves reverting to the traditions of childhood with egg coloring and a possible hunt.

    Sometimes when we’re forced to make changes, we discover whole new pieces of ourselves! XO (And I’m so glad you got those pansies.)

    Such beautiful flowers. Pansies are one of my favorites. The previous post’s daffodils are also lovely. A good friend once reminded me long ago, “never pass up an opportunity to see beauty.” These posts remind me of that idea. I hope your Easter was happy and you had some FaceTime with Jackie.

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
