Dad has his endoscopy today, which I'm praying goes smoothly. Going to get tons of work done while I wait. :)
BTW. Flint Farmer's Market is only the coolest place on the PLANET. Will post pictures later of all the yummy, local, mega fresh, and best of all, healthy, things we got for $80.

Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum
Homemade bread!!! Need I say more?
Here is the recipe:
3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon of salt
1 & 1/2 teaspoons active yeast
2 (ish) cups of warm water
3 tablespoons of olive oil
Sift flour and salt into bowl, leave a well in the center. Mix roughly half of the water with the yeast in a separate bowl or cup until it begins to look almost frothy. (That's how you know the yeast is alive!) Mix remaining water, olive oil and yeast/water combo until a dough ball begins to form. Knead for about ten minutes or until the dough begins to look smooth. (It'll feel different...you'll see!) Put in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel and place in a warm spot for a few hours. Knead again. Repeat this process as many times as you like. (I did that twice before bed and then put my bread bowl in the fridge to slow the rising process. When I woke up the next morning, I kneaded again and then let it sit til early afternoon....turned out YUMMY.) Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes, or until golden brown.
ENJOY!
