Artisan Bread

http://www.food.com/recipe/5-minute-artisan-bread-325571


This morning I woke up to a roaring fire and coffee already prepared and delivered to my bed. What a beautiful way to start a morning. It is 10 degrees of cold, dark winter outside. But, inside, I am sitting by my fire with a steaming cup of coffee and my babies playing at my feet. The only thing I need is some homemade bread, toasted and spread with apricot jelly. Over the weekend I tried my hand at Artisan bread. Oh my goodness. So easy and so delicious.

I used the recipe from Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes A Day. It cost about 40 cents to make 2 loaves which would have been $5 a loaf at the bakery. Yummy deliciousness!

The rest of my day will be spent cleaning the house after a 3 day weekend. Throw in a ski trip, a Bronco game, a playdate, 2 haircuts in my shower and a baking lesson with my son..we made pies! and this house is a wreck. Have a blessed day!

Sounds like the perfect way to wake up! :)

I have bookmarked this bread link, thank you! I'm bummed I don't have any yeast in the house or I'd be making it now. Thanks for the link!

The homemade bread sounds great! It sounds like you and Greg are doing wonderful. I was thinking about you guys and decided to see if I could track you down.
