Completely Blessed

What more could I ask for? (Climate of Texas aside) This is what I am thankful for tonight........ I am mastering, in due time, the art of making bread. Goodbye store bought bread! Homemade is one-hundred times better. We have a little garden that is actually producing. What a miracle to behold: planting a tiny seed and watching how it grows. I feel like I had very little to do with this whole process. I only made a nice spot for it to grow and the miracle took place. I have moon flowers vining in the backyard, which have the most beautiful smell. We even have a toad that hangs around our house at night to catch the bugs. There is life here in Texas after all!
Our new neighborhood friend.


This is the moon flower. It blooms at night and
has a surprising beautiful smell. It blooms so fast that you can stand there and watch it open up.
My homemade bread. First attempt at white sandwich bread. It tasted great. I think I will keep this recipe.

Yum! Your bread looks great. That's something I've never dared to try. I'm afraid of yeast:-)
