And let's not forget about bread

The old French Bread recipe, little changed from what we ate as kids (I skip the egg wash, and I use olive oil instead of butter, but that's it).

Mom's handwritten recipe doesn't call for kneading...but I've always assumed that you do.

Lovely as always. I have some flaxseed-rye sourdough proofing overnight in the kitchen right now.

Beautiful. Is it just wheat flour?
Meant to ask: Do you and Lindsey like sweet breads? Do you mind raisins?

This particular loaf consists of King Arthur All-Purpose Flour, Fleischmanns's Instant Yeast, salt, olive oil and Raleigh tap water.

We love sweet breads, and we love all manner of trocken obst.
