Bread Making
About two weeks ago my dad and I went to learn how to make bread. A lady from my church ran it, and we ate the most DELICIOUS bread. The next day dad and I went a bit bread crazy, and we made breads, and pizza bases… so yum!
The bread we made in the video below was Ciabatta, an Italian loaf you can probably get in the bakery. It was fairly easy, but we did have to let it rise for 12 hours, so it took a bit of forward planning, and a whole lot of patience!!
Since then I’ve made a few more batches, and we’ve been eating the bread I’ve made for lunches. I’m a little bit annoyed because my own doesn’t seem to be making bread as nicely as mum and dad’s oven, or the oven we learnt on… it means that while these bread loaves are beautiful and soft, mine are always a bit hard- because the heat isn’t getting into the bread right… 
Apparently this is something that does happen, and a consideration when buying an oven. When we build I will be looking out for a super duper oven, but for now I think I’ll have to think of a way to make do with what I’ve got!
Anyway, this is how it went (let me know in the comments if you want the recipe, and I’ll type it up!):

2009 Round-up
So I said in a pervious post that I would try to do a little bit of a summary of the past week. Just to record my memories better, and give you an insight into life… I don’t have much to report, except to say that I’m getting more organised… planning out my posts, and food and all those things.
Last week Luke and I decided to take a break from the home group we’ve been going too, just to re-prioritse the activities we’re involved in, and re-focus. I’d love to get into playing a sport again one night, but I’m not sure where, and the cost (I know it’s never much- but we’re trying to save all our pennies) could be a set-back. Pilates on the DVD at home will have to do for now!!
I’m looking at going to a scrapbooking night on Friday nights with mum, and maybe Rachel which would be fun, and if I don’t go to that i will try to make a time each week when I can sit down and just scrap.
What sort of activites are YOU invovled in, what do people do at nights?
Here’s a little sneak peak at a tutorial I’ll be putting up soon… any guess what it is?!
Below is also a video of Luke, Pepper and my 2009. It probably doesn’t mean much to anyone other then us, so I won’t be offended if you don’t watch the whole thing. 
P.S they’re all in random order.
