Thursday: Importance of the Arts—Bread and Butter

October 16th, 2008 in Thursday: The Importance of the Arts

For the giveaway click here.

Yes Bread and Butter can be an art form, cooking is the biggest art form in our home.

I bought this beautiful cookbook called The River Cottage Family Cookbook and it has quickly become my new favorite cookbook. The pictures are beautiful, recipes are written with love and it explains in the perfect way why you should do things certain ways.

I have NEVER not EVER made a good loaf of bread until following their directions and recipe. The recipe? No way you have to buy the book :) The girls loved helping me with this cooking task.

    My favorite memories are of my moms homemade bread when I got home from school- I never make the butter though- I should try it! I love your site!

    OOH! Homemade butter! We did that once in my fifth grade class. That was cool. I made pumpkin butter the other day from a recipe I found in Body & Soul. It was SO GOOD! Now if only I had some toast to spread it on…

    I love your point of view and seems like I’m not the only one.
