In high school one of my favorite breakfasts was a leftover baked potato and a glass of orange juice, eaten standing up a the counter. My mom and I used to joke that if you eat standing up, the calories don’t count (ha!). Anyone else like to have dinner leftovers for breakfast? How about in [...]

I was almost certain this recipe would be a bust. I’m glad my bad attitude didn’t taint the whole process, because I have to say I was thoroughly surprised and impressed by the end result.

Sometimes the answer might be right under your nose. I’m pretty sure this recipe is the winner so far in my book, and it’s one I’ve made for a few years now as rolls and hamburger buns. It’s featured as THE soaked bun recipe in the Family Camping Handbook. I found it at The Happy [...]

Katie’s Basic Bread Baking Techniques (or lack thereof)

I come from a long history of amazing bread bakers, believe it or not. My Busia (Polish grandmother, 100%!) raised nine children and made all of her own bread, well over 5 loaves a week. Maybe 9? She kneaded it in a huge bread pan at her feet while she sat on a stool. I [...]
