    gluten free blueberry loaf

    I’m not really into food fads .. unless of course it’s bacon or sourdough bread. The idea of cutting something out of my diet completely is a bit terrifying to me. I’m not very good at self restraint unless there is a light at the end of the tunnel. That’s why I’m pretty good at…

    easiest bread of your life

    I have a huge weakness for carbs. Specifically bread … and not of the whole wheat variety. Whole wheat can take a hike and never come back … just kidding. Kind of. I’ve attempted to make bread a few times before, some that I’ve documented on the blog… some pre-blog. It feels like bread is…

    sugar loves her bread

    I’m an independent woman. I live alone. I carry my own suitcase. I attempt to change my own lightbulbs. But, I really like living in the North End. Those don’t seem connected to you? Oh, but they are. When you go shopping in the North End at delis / butchers / markets / etc, men call you…

    I'm making bread!

    I have a soft spot for carbohydrates. Particularly those that come in bread form … and even more those that are freshly baked. I spent the summer buying bread from French Memories in Cohasset – and believe me it was great. I’d say on average I bought a loaf and a half a week –…
