I even tweaked the recipe and reduced the yeast a tad to account for the reduced salt, because even though I did adjust it last year, it obviously wasn't enough and I had some collapse from overproofing. It may still need reduced a little more, but it's pretty good.

And a pic of the gluten-free (my OT is gluten sensitive) Boston Cream poke cake I made yesterday and took in today as a thank you.

I still regularly shout out "slices, sticks, dices" when chopping food. 💔

Oooohhhh....I love this!

I'm pretty sure Elizabeth is taking time to eat the flowers.

Oh, my, that's beautiful. 😍

Beef, pork, veal mix with ketchup, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, egg, milk, oatmeal, minced garlic, grated carrot, grated onion, and grated celery, hand mixed and topped with a mixture of ketchup, yellow mustard, brown sugar, and hickory liquid smoke. Served with mash and peas. 🤷‍♀️

Suddenly thinking of Mark Twain.

It's like Carnival glass. 😍

Ooooo....😯

Ooooo...That's a stunning oriel. 😍

Weed vs. Flower is a matter of perception. A weed is just a plant growing in the wrong place. 🤷‍♀️
