I made marvelous bread yesterday. What a delight to learn a new skill which allows me to reproduce quality bread at home in just a few minutes. I highly recommend "Artisan Bread in Five Minutes A Day" by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoe Francois.

I intend to fully enjoy this week of vacation. The family is home today and housebound by the heavy rain. It will be a great day to get some lesson planning done for upcoming weeks. Tomorrow I'm on a trek to the North Coast to visit my granddaughter and break up my daughter's last week of pregnancy. Next weekend, if all goes well, we'll work on our square foot garden boxes and perhaps add to our flock of chickens.

I hope everyone(and both of my readers) enjoys the week, sunny weather or wet.
