Yeast bread -- done and dusted. It rose quickly and I think I over-proofed it a bit, but otherwise, a hit. (When I added the link below, her pictures also have a sunk top, so maybe it wasn't over-proofed.) I stayed clear because of the gluten, but it smelled great and hubby loved it. Two more packets of yeast if I feel inspired. It was way easier than I thought.
Here's the recipe I used:
Forecast for the wedding weekend is THUNDERSTORMS, WIND and RAIN. Noooooooo (!!) Let's hope it changes. Pretty please with sugar on the top.
Today is the last day of no rain forecasted for the week. Heading to Gibbs Gardens this afternoon to see the daffodils. I planned a hair practice today, but I'm switching things up. Trader Joe's this morning and hair tomorrow. I'm totally out of fresh veggies and I don't want another day of frozen stuff.
Publix added a new party tray and it's perfect for DIL. I'll add a couple of baskets of extra goodies, but it saves a lot of work. It's better than I planned given the timing and setup. That was a lucky find when I was ordering my son's sub platter.
I'm still working at not letting my brain convince me I need to be overwhelmed. The next 6 weeks are packed with good things (fun and productive things) and I wake up in the night in a little panic. But there's absolutely no need for any level of panic. Dang, brain -- cut it out.
Case in point yesterday. I smoothly got a lot done with no rush or push -- plenty of time for all the things. My first go at bread "fit" into my already full day without a problem and I enjoyed it. It didn't need to wait. Slow down. Breath. Enjoy the process.
That's my goal for Gibbs Gardens today. ENJOY the pretty nature show. Trees are in bloom too. It should be beautiful. Taking a Peloton ride, hitting Trader Joe's and then a nature walk. Sounds like a good day.
Have a good day too. Send sunshine vibes for no rain on Sunday. Stay well. Later gators.
