Do you smell the home made bread? Ahhhhh, I love the smell of baking, yes baking in the middle of summer. I pulled out my bread machine, what for ? Because we (all 3 of us) were in a conversation about food prices (I think) and I had read one of my many articles about the raising costs. In the article it gave percentages of how much food has risen in price due to the extream gas increases we are all feeling. Any how, my sweet little boy said, "Well Mommy why don't you make the bread?" I said,.....well I could, I used to make bread all of the time Garrett. So I was prompted to pull out my bread maching and make a loaf. I can't eat it buy I know my guys will love it. The loaf of bread I purchase every week just for the guys is $2.45 and sometimes $2.75. One bag of bread flour is $2.45, not sure how many loaves that will make. I used to get a huge bag of bread flour for like $6.00 from Sam's club. I am dependent on someone buying it for me since I do not have a membership. I am going to put in my order for bread flour to a friend and start making more bread!!!! Home made is always better and I love to bless others with a fresh home baked loaf!!! I can't wait to give some to my neighbor Ray. (They are long time church family and neighbors) His wife of 40 years is in a fight for her life with brain cancer. It came fast and furious, they removed the tumor last week and she may be coming home this week. Our prayers our in constant thought for this family. Ruby is an awesome woman of faith, she runs a small breakfast and lunch resturant her in town and is loved by many. Ruby lost her mother to brain cancer a few years back, this is so scary for Ruby's family as they were told the disease is hereditary. But we have a mighty God that has his hand upon this family. Please lift this family up in your prayers.
A few weeks ago we picked Blueberrys at Cline Berry Farms down the road. It was such a fun family time. We took a big bucket of berries to Ruby as this is something she loves to do with her family every year. We picked 3 large buckets, I think we need more for the freezer though, I eat them frozen for dessert!!! I am going to make the guys a pie this weekend, wish me luck!! it will be my first blueberry pie.
