Sorry for the delay!

I'm so sorry for not updating this in sooo many months!!! There are so many things in life that take my attention away from this(and other things) that I can't even keep track of what is going on!

I got married on October 16th! It was a beautiful day and everything turned out perfect! Here are a few pictures!
My amazing family! Thank you all for being there! I love you guys!

Me and my husband!

I made upside down blackberry apple ginger bread cake. I got the recipe from this blog: http://www.eating-sf.com/2010/07/nectarine-raspberry-upside-down.html
But I switched the fruit to what was cheaper in October. It was soo yummy.


And I made individual marbled cheesecakes. I kind of put a couple recipes together to get what I wanted.....


I guess life has just thrown other things at me. I started working at a new job, and like it WAY better than my old one. It's a local grocery store. I work in the bakery area, And although I'm not actually doing any baking, just stocking and dating and stuff. But everyone is super friendly and it will work for the time being.

One of my friends took a web design class and asked if she could make me a website for my little business that I want to start! She did such a great job! It's not online yet, we will be figure that out in the next few months or so and working out all the kinks and such. Here's a direct link!

I think I will be doing my blog a little differently at times. I guess I find it hard to take pictures step-by-step. So instead maybe I will just put a picture of the finished project and maybe one or two other photos if possible!
Let me know how you like it!

Here's some Rye bread that I made today! It's a recipe from my grandma and I haven't made it in forever. It's soooo yummy. I really enjoy it!


2 C. Rye flour
1 C. Whole wheat flour
1 TBSP. Yeast
5 C. Unbleached white flour
1 1/2 TBSP salt
3 c. Warm water

Put the yeas in a small about of warm water. Add a little honey or sugar.
Mix flours and make a well for yeast. Put the yeast in the well and mix in a small amount of flour. Let rise.

Add water and salt and mix. Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth. About 7 minutes. Put into a greased bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled.
Shape into a loaf(I made a big and little one). Let rise 30-40 minutes.
Preheat oven(with a baking stone or an overturned baking sheet, and a pan filled with water) to 425*F. Score bread.
Bake 50 minutes(I took my little one out about 35-40 minutes)
