Baking, College, Counseling and Life Group

Another morning, another loaf of sourdough. I have 3 in the freezer, and we'll eat this one tonight/tomorrow. I decided to try something different. 

I am trying a brioche with eggs and butter and milk...and starter. I'm not sure I'll be able to figure out the braiding by myself...but I'll worry about that tomorrow morning. πŸ˜€ I pulled out the Bosch to do the kneading...and it walks and leaps all over the counter. WHAT have YOU done to keep your mixer from walking? I decided to sit down with a cuppa chai and a scone if I was going to have to stand with a hand on the mixer for 10 min anyway. ::snort:: 

The girls didn't have classes today.  Stacia had time to take Millie for a run in the park. Millie feels like a queen as she got the cow hip joint/bone to eat today too.  Allie and Stacia are working hard to get things completed before spring break.  Stacia had a counseling appointment.  The girls stayed home with GG and watched, "The Iron Giant." 

Michael and I attended a new life group. We are pretty excited to be taking this "next step" with our current church.   We had been hoping for a life group in the valley. This one is just starting in our town...we won't have to drive 1 1/2 hours to attend, and we may make new friends who live out here. We're discussing Nehemiah which is a book I've wanted to spend time studying for about 9 months. 

GRACE NOTES:

1. Everyone was home for dinner - that doesn't happen often these days with the girls' college and social schedules. 

2. We began attending a life group in our town.
