Where did the month go?

It has been a very quick month. I have been enjoying the spring-like weather we've been having. I thought there for a moment I was living in Nevada or somewhere warmer. I am writing more all the time. I just submitted five poems to a BYU poetry place. I want to submit more poetry, but I get cooking up a storm in the kitchen and the time is gone! I love to cook and eat and make yummy things. I'm writing one of my favorite recipes every day, so in a few months I'll have a recipe book too. A lot of them are simply stored in my head and I know how to make the stuff, but nobody else has the recipe. I'm glad that my family put together a family favorites cookbook in 1987 before all of my aunts passed on. I love the food they prepared and they are still a part of my life as I cook the recipes that were some of their favorites.

Baking Bread

I love to bake bread and cinnamon rolls and cookies and you name it. I love to bake it … and eat it!!

Baking by Tedi Wixom    January 4, 2012

Baking, I’m baking
I’m making some bread

In goes the water
Yeast, oil, flour and lead

Just kidding you know
Cross off the last said.

Baking, I’m taking
Components for bread

A spoonful of salt
Two spoons of sugar

I’m kneading the bread
I’m raising the bread

I’m punching it down
We’ll soon be all fed

Baking, I’m baking
Mm! Fresh loaves of bread

Supper was yummy
It’s now time for bed!
