I finally gave the sourdough a rest and made some plain, old-fashioned Honey Wheat Bread.
Our friend came over to help document this momentous occasion!
It's not sourdough!
Honey Wheat Bread1 1/8 cups water
2 cups white bread flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 T. dry milk (powdered coffee creamer works too)
1 1/2 T. honey
1 1/2 t. salt
2 T. butter
2 t. fast rise yeast
Bread machine on dough cycle, then bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes. To go with the bread, we made some oven roasted Georgia potatoes, and some cheesy scrambled eggs. I use velveeta in my scrambled eggs--I'll admit it.
Meanwhile--this little contraption
...is giving someone a major headache!
Happy Saturday!

happy saturday - the cheesy eggs sound good - sometimes velveeta is the answer...
That looks like a great breakfast!
The bread looks very tempting! And it looks like you have lovely temperature with the shorts and all!
Everything looks great but the browned potatoes look particularly delicious. I have a terrible time making good home fries and hash browns. Any tips?
Doggy--I always feel kind of lame, but velveeta...its just versatile
Anette--it wasn't super warm, but we really, really hate to leave summer. To the point of being slightly uncomfortable ;)
Maggie--I like my potatoes crispy and my eggs "cooked hard" (a phrase I'd never heard until cooking short order in Atlanta for a year) Basically, I like it on the tasty edge of burnt. I do my oven potatoes at 450 for too long--probably 40 minutes, with some stirring depending on size of slices. My dad fryed them in really hot oil, and double dipped them.
..to clarify--double dipped in oil. If you have a good relation with the cook at your regular fry joint, ask them to double dip your fries. It's totally worth it.
What is that thing?
I love the honey wheat bread? How do you make it into such a cute little loaf? And I think it's so cute you put velvetta in your eggs!
Velveeta, American cheese= Nerd cheese!!! I use it too, but never (until now!) admit it.... I'd eat with you two, ignore the food- and just enjoy your company!
What a cute, sweet lil loaf of bread!! And ahh, velveeta... it's a secret shortcut for when we're feeling lazy, yes? *Don't worry, I won't tell anyone* ;)
Well, it's Tuesday but any day is a happy day. Hope you both are doing well.
Blonde--I pull it out after dough cycle, then just throw it in the oven :)
Buffalo--Oh good lord, velveeta is about the least nerdy thing on my repertoire--just come visit, you'll see.
Jesse--thanks for stopping by--I fell completely in love with your blog this afternoon! (yes, and please tell no one about the processed cheese)
Cynthia--We are :) I want to try making you biscuits this weekend, I'll post if they work out!
the velvetta in eggs must be a southern thing....my husband picked that up after going to school in Charleston.
PS, don't ever break that cheese slicer you have. I had one...it broke...and I have NEVER been able to find one that slices as good as that one. Does that one have a little roller that adjusts the thickness of the cheese? I totally miss mine!
