Oops! I have to pay closer attention

I wanted orange marmalade and lemon curd. I came home with two mistakes.

My toast was dry. I had a taste for orange marmalade and lemon curd to jazz up my breakfast. Too bad I didn’t buy what I craved.

Drinking beer in the morning?

As I was handling the can of beer I thought I might be giving the wrong idea about my drinking habits.

I really don’t care to drink beer, except maybe on a hot summer’s day. I prefer to use it to make yummy bread. Making a loaf is a great use for a can of beer.

Sprouts in my kitchen

I have two videos I made about sprouting seeds on YouTube. This is the second one I did.

It’s easy to sprout seeds. I love to eat alfalfa sprouts. You don’t need anything fancy. A canning jar works with a cheesecloth cover. Soak seeds overnight in room temperature water. Pour off the water. Each morning and evening, pour room temperature water into your container and then drain well. Depending on the seeds you are using, they will sprout in a day or two. After they grow a few more days, you can eat them. When they grow large enough, rinse, and then refrigerate them. Great for salads, tacos, and sandwiches. Find different seeds to sprout if you want other flavors. Radish sprouts are a little spicy.
