Daring Bakers – March Celebration!
It’s that time again! Except this time I feel like a fool. Somehow I had it in my head that this month’s posting was to be done on the 31th (last day of the month, just like last month, which was my first time participating). But my assumption was wrong, and I just realized it [...]

Bread Baking Day #8 – Celebration Breads
I was so excited when Susan of Wild Yeast posted that she was going to be hosting this current BBD, and I was also thrilled that the theme was celebration breads. That excitement didn’t last long though. I sat there for a while and thought about the different celebrations that I’ve been a [...]
TWD – Better late than never! Coconut Caramel Flan
I’m back, TWD‘er’s, I’m back! The kitchen remodel took two weeks more than I thought it would, and now the kitchen is finally done (and clean!). I made this flan on Tuesday, but didn’t realize that it not only had to cool to room temp AND chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours. [...]

San Francisco Baking Institute – Artisan Bread – Day Five!
It’s been a wonderful week but it must come to an end. Today is my last day at SFBI‘s Artisan 1 Bread class, and I must say.. I’ve learned a ton! I can’t wait to go home and apply everything that I’ve learned, not to mention actually using my at-home equipment, which is so different [...]

San Francisco Baking Institute – Artisan Bread – Day Four!
Finally something besides baguettes! Day 4 at SFBI‘s Artisan I bread class was such a great (and busy!) day. The last three days had been primarily spent learning about bread and applying that knowledge to our constant – the baguette. The mixing methods, different flours, shaping… all the baguette. Believe me, I loved the baguette, [...]

My day = Made!
I was completely dumbfounded to see that someone (I don’t know her name, either!) had said that my blog was one that made their day – I mean, its not even a month old, and there’s hardly any content! But, nonetheless, I am totally honored, and thrilled, not to mention motivated to keep things bloggin’ [...]

San Francisco Baking Institute – Artisan Bread – Day Three!
I’m finally able to write about day three and on! I visited family on the evenings of class day #3 and #4, and was out too late to blog! Then, after day #5, I flew out (red eye!) and the airport didn’t have free wi-fi, or my laptop couldn’t find it. The focus of day [...]
San Francisco Baking Institute – Artisan Bread – Day Two!
It’s day two at SFBI and things are going very well! Today we had about an hour’s worth of lecture and spent the majority day in the kitchen baking up 15 baguettes per person. That’s a lot of white flour! The point of today was to really learn about the intricacies of the three different [...]

San Francisco Baking Institute – Artisan Bread – Day One!
Because my husband is definitely the most fabulous man on the face of the earth, he decided to get me an Artisan bread class for my birthday. Not only did he set up the class, but he arranged my flight with his extra miles, and arranged my hotel stay with his redemption points as well. [...]
