Shalom Y’all,
I love making bread. It feels delicious! Does that make sense? I think all you bread bakers out there will understand the pleasurable sensory experience of working bread dough in your hands.
I particularly enjoy working with my homemade 100% whole wheat and honey Challah dough and braiding it. What fun to see the intricate weave created just by moving ropes of dough in and out. I imagine this is what an artist experiences when they see their project come alive and take form.
Here are some shots I took today. Below this post, you can see the finished [baked] loaves. To me, they are beauty, simplicity and blessing. An added benefit is that these creations taste fabulous.
This is art you can eat! 
About Vickilynn
Hi Vickilynn I was looking at the Challah how-to pictures and I couldn’t figure out where each braid piece is going. If (haa haa, when) you make it again, is there a way you could color each one differently so we can see where it is going? I would like to try it. Thanks!! C
Shalom Charlene,
Oh, I hear you! It’s taken me a long time to get the 6-strand braiding down and I did it by watching videos.
Here are is one that helped me a great deal!
