Well, the winter months are coming to a close and I’m looking forward to seeing if March is going to come in like a lamb or a lion (what does that REALLY mean anyway?!?). The groundhog saw his shadow this year, so that’s supposed to mean that we have more cold weather to look forward to before Spring arrives, instead of a gentle warming trend. We’ll see. Today the thermometer is reading 47° so maybe it’s time for Mr. Groundhog to find a new occupation….
Due to recent surgery to fix an injury from this summer, I’ve had to put a temporary halt to making bread while I let my shoulder heal. So the one thing I for sure am looking forward to is getting my hands back into dough….hopefully soon! With Spring just around the corner, it’s time to think about putting those heavier Winter breads to the side and bring out the lighter breads just in time for Easter and other seasonal events that bring us all close together. Hopefully the Covid threat will continue to diminish and we will all be able to start getting back to normal soon.
Found some interesting rolled oats today at one of my suppliers – they are larger and thicker and I think will be a nice update to those more hearty breads I was just talking about putting to the side…….OK, maybe it’s too soon to start trading out for lighter breads. Can’t seem to make up my mind – maybe I should see if I see my shadow….
