Popping In

Another day. Another loaf.


March has flown by. People always said time goes by faster the older you get. It certainly seems true, even though it's not in actuality. Did we simply not pay attention when young? Probably.

I don't understand how days seemed endless in childhood and now blink and you missed it! That's a beautiful loaf.

Sandra said...

I know what you mean. It passes so fast. I remember as a kid how long summer seemed. Sitting in class the second hand never seemed to move. Now, you are, right...blink and you miss it.

A slightly different bread from the Italian loaf. 3-1 ration all purpose and white whole wheat. No milk or olive oil.

Butter! I need Butter!! Yum.

The years are passing so quickly :(

Sandra said...

Miss Merry, homemade bread is good!

They are passing so fast.

Sandi said...

That looks delicious.

The Happy Whisk said...

LOVE the bake. Looks amazing. Home bread, so good. I don't know about the time going by. Maybe we think we have more as kids? Or like you said, don't pay attention as much. That could be too!

PS: Vanilla Bean Banana Bake cooling on the kitchen table, as I type.

It been ages since I made homemade bread.

Lori Skoog said...

I'm always jealous of the beautiful bread you make.....

Have had a few discussions with kids about the passage of time.
We decided that when you're a kid, a year is a lot longer because, for example, if you're six, a year is 1/6 of your life. If you're me, a year is 1/63. A big difference, and it makes sense when you think of it like that.

I don't eat a lot of bread, but I love a good sourdough hot from the oven with a bit of butter dipped in my clam chowder.

Shit. I'm drooling on my brand new computer.

As a kid, I couldn't wait to get older so I could do the things that the older kids did.
Now I wish I had not been in such a hurry.

That loaf looks great!

Ok, Sandra, now I know that my husband would be seriously envious of your fresh baked bread, so I will await your email to share with him😋

We're on fast-forward.

Sandra said...

Thanks, Sandi! It is good.

Sandra said...

Ivy, I bet your kitchen smelled fantastic!

Sandra said...

I swear, Lori, you could make it. Now my playing the uke.....not so much!

Sandra said...

Ami, very logical!

I eat bread in the morning and at lunch. Probably every day. I like sourdough but am a terrible keeper of starter. I'll stick with yeast!

Sandra said...

Val, I took on adult responsibility too young so I'm with you on that.

Sandra said...

Dorothy, I got into something yesterday and it slipped my mind until I was going to bed. I will send today. Really!

Sandra said...

Dora, I make most of our bread but hadn't done much of that for the past few years. I'm feeling better and went right back to it!

Sandra said...

AC, we certainly are!

Far Side of Fifty said...

What a great looking loaf! I heard someone say that it our experiences and memories that fills up our time and make time seem to go faster. When we are young time seems to go by so slowly because we don't have much to recall.

Sandra said...

Far Side, that makes sense. So maybe it will slow down if I do a memory dump? Probably not, I'd just end up in memory care!

Barwitzki said...

Time flies... I just run with it, at least that's how it seems to me :-))
Your bread looks delicious.
I have two loaves of bread in the oven right now because Easter visitors are coming. The cake is already baked. I am happy.
Happy Easter to you and yours.

Sandra said...

Viola, all we can do is run with it, but man, I can't run that fast! I hope you have a wonderful Easter and I love that you are happy!
