Shalom!

I’m preparing for my 10-day trip to Israel and also preparing for my family to have my home-cooked foods and breads while I’m gone. I’m doing that for several reasons. One is that I care enough about their nutrition and health to make sure they are eating well in my absence. Another reason is that I shudder to think about the cost (not only monetarily but but physically as well) of eating fast food and junk food every day for 10 days for my husband and the children. YIKES! And the last, but certainly not least of my reasons is so that whenever my family enjoys of my lovingly-prepared meals while I am gone, they will think of me and remember how much I love them.

This past weekend, I spent about 8 hours baking breads for the freezer. First, I ground the wheat in my Retsel stone grain mill. Next I mixed and kneaded the dough in my Bosch. Then I shaped and baked 12 loaves of bread 12 rolls and 45 pizza swirls.

My family is so worth it!
