I'm trying a new whole wheat bread recipe. I found in on King Arthur's website: http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/100-whole-wheat-nut-and-seed-bread-recipe
It called for sunflower seeds, which I thought would be delish-so I got some sunflower seeds from Mary Jo-with shells-not realizing (1) how long it takes to de-shell 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds, and (2) that you can buy sunflower seeds pre-de-shelled. I finished de-shelling probably a month ago, at least, but haven't found time to actually make the bread.
John-Mark's up in Pittsburgh tonight at the basketball game, so I thought it would be a good time to try out the recipe. But then I realized I wanted to watch the game-which requires a trip to the WVU Law student lounge, since we don't have a tv/cable. So the bread dough came along. I decided to set it on what seemed the warmest place in here-the top of the Coke machine. I started pretty late, though, so I might be up till 1 am waiting for it to rise.
It reminds me of Dad taking his bread dough to church and reaching down mid-sacrament meeting to turn it under the pew. I love his quirks like that, and I miss it. John-Mark and I talked a little last night about where we'd like to be to start work in the fall of 2012...and we don't really know...but I miss my family. Being so busy doesn't allow for a lot of time to dwell on this, but I miss them a lot.
I love how when J-M's away every text he sends ends with "I love you."
