#tammykayeart watercolor workshop It’s my Friday night, and this was a pretty cool way to spend it. Feels good to be trying new skills and not being too hard on myself about the outcome.

I’m discovering another outlet for joy. Watercolor painting! Very, very early beginner, but I’m learning to just try and see what happens.

I’m fully in the holiday version of not knowing what day of the week it is currently. It’s like normal, but with pretty lights and candles everywhere in my house. #winter

My oldest son is home for part of his winter break and he made us #bread 🍞. It’s his first attempt at Challah and it was so soft and delicious! The other loaf is topped with poppyseeds and I wrapped it up to store in the freezer until we finish this loaf.

Week 2. Same basic (AP flour) recipe as Week 1. 🍞 What I did better: I didn’t miss the step of rolling a tight ball on a dry surface before placing it in the proofing basket. And I baked it uncovered for 10 min. vs. 15 min. #kenforkish #flourwatersaltyeast #breadsky

💙📚With the High Winds Warning and heavy rain, today was the perfect to cozy up on the couch and start a new book.

That was fun! I will let it cool overnight and cut into it tomorrow. 🍞 I made both loaves, but couldn’t remember where my second Dutch oven was (since found it!). So I baked the second loaf uncovered, alongside this one. It’s a bit too dark, but I am curious to see how it looks inside and tastes.

I’m baking bread today, using Ken Forkish’s “Flour, Water, Salt, Yeast”. My goal is to bake my way through the book and see how my skills grow. 🍞 Might as well bake some Christmas goodies while I wait for the dough to double!

This candle is older than my kids. I am done waiting and keeping things. It’s time to enjoy them!

I started my Christmas baking after work today, and it’s a good one! Double Chocolate Peppermint Cookies from In Bloom Bakery. My boys have a favorite peppermint chocolate cookie from a coffee shop that closed several years ago. This one should make them pretty happy! CookieParty

Starting my day listening to Ina Garten’s memoir, “Be Ready When the Luck Happens” feels appropriate on Thanksgiving day.
