a true housewife.. at least today!

i really have no idea what came over me today, but i felt like making homemade bread. the last loaf i made i could have used as a door stop. so, i've been avoiding it for quite a while. i decided to give it another shot this afternoon. i used a different recipe and my brand new bosch...and the bread tuned out great. actually, better than great! i made two rounds and two loaves. both are beautifully golden!!

let me know if you want the recipe. it was super easy. and if your not a lover of your bosch yet, you will be!

as if that wasn't enough homemaking for one day...i did more. while i was making bread i realized all my aprons are old and frumpy. i decided i needed a new, trendy, desperate-housewife-like apron. so i rumaged through my material and came up with this. it turned out so cute! i feel so sassy in the kitchen now. sorry, there's no tutorial for it...i made it up as i went, and since i didn't now if it would turn out or not i didn't take pictures. but the final product was too cute to not show you all.

i'm thinking of adding a cute pocket on the front in the red dot material...what do you think??

I would love the recipe for the bread, it looks soooo tasty! The apron is adorable, I can't believe you just whipped that up, look how awesome you are. I think you should figure out how you did it and then do another post. I love your site

I THINK you could wear that apron.. to church. Might be the cutest thing I've ever seen.
And no. I will not let you teach me how to make warm, homemade bread.. because I 'heart' warm, homemade bread, and would eat the loaf in no time time flat.. causing problems in my "keep the carbs low cause you're 37 and not gettin' any thinner" plan.
