Home made bread

There is almost nothing better in this world than home made bread baking in the oven.  I like to buy the frozen bread dough loaves at the store, and when I have the time at home I pull them out and cook a couple of loaves.

Today is such a day.  I have two loaves of bread rising in the oven, and I should have them ready to eat with supper.  Home made bread makes a plain meal a lot more “comfort food”-ish.  No one in my house complains about supper when there is a freshly baked loaf of home made bread on the table!

Teaching my son to cook

Recently one of my sons informed me that he would like to learn how to cook some of his favorite meals.  You could have knocked me over with a feather!  I am thrilled to finally share some of my skills, talents, knowledge with my kids!

The first “dish” he wanted to learn how to make is my version of lasagna.  So, the next time I went grocery shopping I bought all of the ingredients.  The next time we had a few hours together we cooked a pan of lasagna together.  Hopefully he’ll remember how to do that and I hope that he will be the “official lasagna cook” from this point forward.  It would be really nice to have more help around the house in the way of people sharing the cooking duties!
