It is really tedious work. On the upside, there is no equal to homemade bread. Save me a slice and I will slather it with cream cheese and jelly. Hope you get some well-deserved rest before school begins.Preetihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15363550140143647850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-1908616758428756532018-08-11T10:37:13.367-04:002018-08-11T10:37:13.367-04:00The extreme weather this summer has made many peop...The extreme weather this summer has made many people weary. It is too darn hot. We are dealing with temps in the high 90's and really unhealthy smokey air quality. Ugh.<br />Mari, how did I miss the whole gluten free thing? When/how did this happen? Good to find a bread that works for you. I remember when the migraines were just starting (9 years ago or so) I tried going gluten-free to see if that was an issue for me. Bread was a tough one and the store bought breads were strange taste wise and texture too. Enjoy this bread!! It looks great. Though this is hardly bread baking season. <br /> ;-)Bernie Kringelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00753481379287809548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-49114703617440846432018-08-10T21:33:07.963-04:002018-08-10T21:33:07.963-04:00Wow, you sure picked a labor-intensive activity fo...Wow, you sure picked a labor-intensive activity for such swampy weather. Those t-shirts look great with the black sashing, though, and I have a feeling you’ll find a wonderful way to fit all the pieces together. I have avoided my iron this week in favor of “cool” pressing with a roller. Our drought and extreme heat did finally break. We had 4 1/2 inches of much needed rain in a very short time. If not for the drought it could have been a disaster. I’m not ready for winter, but will admit to dreaming of a fall wardrobe. I’m glad you found a bread that you like that works for you. It looks yummy!JanineMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13475847392355523001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-31136900817270918952018-08-10T20:57:32.785-04:002018-08-10T20:57:32.785-04:00Looking good!!

Each time I plug the iron in, it raised the temps in that room 1-2 degrees. I have a fan aimed at the ironing board, and several other fans in the room, too. I feel your pain. I turned on the iron several times yesterday. I unplug it as soon as possible each time.

Haha. Now we're curious if my husband knows your daughter. I'm taking note to wait until fall to do all that ironing work on mine! So glad you found a good bread recipe. I recall when we did the Atkins diet years ago, trying to find no carb bread was the pits, so I understand the happiness you experienced actually having a sandwich! piecefulwendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256164519304112032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-73420444226348387562018-08-10T07:35:43.603-04:002018-08-10T07:35:43.603-04:00I eat gluten free and found a wonderful sourdough ...I eat gluten free and found a wonderful sourdough bread recipe at the flip flop barn blog. GF folks can often eat sourdough without problems because of the chemical action of the sourdough. You may want to check this out. I appreciate your blog and your creativity.
