I love, love, love your gorgeous needlework designs. So perfect. And the bread and donuts, oh, how delicious! I'm glad you were able to have the dishes shipped to your home for no extra charge, how frustrating otherwise.<br /><br />And who could resist sweet Tork in your basket? Give her a special pat from me.

What...Lorraine, you never fail to make me smile. <br /><br />What sweet beaded and buttoned pictures you make.<br /><br />And what a cuddly-looking kitty. Isn't it funny how they love to snuggle into enclosed spaces like that?<br /><br />I have a donut pan.... somewhere.... I tried baked donuts once and the recipe I used made hockey pucks. I'll try the one you linked to, they look wonderful, and much lower in fat, I'm sure! <br /><br />I made my oatmeal bread with craisins as well. This bread freezes well. I slice it at pack it away in the freezer so I can take a slice out when I need it. Homemade bread hasn't all the preservatives of store bread and turns moldy quickly. Good idea about the slicing! I have a feeling Hubs will be eating my homemade bread more as we go along, thanks to a couple of good recipes from Glenda, and the fact that the bread outlet is closing thanks to Hostess going bankrupt.<br /><br />That's too bad about the mis-information. But it turned out well, anyway, and sounds like you had a nice day out. Much as we love our homes, it does us good to get away every now and then. <br /><br />Hugs, Ilene XOXOXOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-28837565554072548582012-11-16T20:49:05.641-05:002012-11-16T20:49:05.641-05:00Hi Lorraine, Great post...

The bread looks tasty too. <br /><br />I feel badly for the clerk who screwed up.

Sometimes one slice is too tall for toasting and about 1/3 isn't! Good idea.<br /><br />Guess what DH and I were talking about yesterday morning.....home made doughnuts!! I have never tried the baked ones though. Interesting thought.<br /><br />His blood sugar was a little high so I better be good about my baking.<br /><br />Have a super weekend.<br /><br />PS Love the Mocking Birds bath pictures.

I wonder if it's anything like the one I make with buttermilk powder? (Was a recipe from my sister-in-law, and the only one I make in my bread machine.)<br /><br />What can I say about the donuts, except "Yum!" I didn't know there was such a thing as a donut pan. <br /><br />I hope your weekend continues to unfold nicely. We have a very busy Saturday. I'm catching my breath now and will probably let it out at the end of the day.

I bet he was thinking about that all day long and I also bet, he will not do that again! I like the shells you used in the hearts. They really add a nice touch. I get such a good feeling inside when watching the birds splash around in the birdbaths. They seem to be having such a great time dont they? Oh Miss Tork, you mess you! Cant sit a basket down with a kitty near by in my house. May God Bless those with storm damage...
