Our Day

We picked these this morning -- a yellow squash and two kinds of cucumbers. Malin had some sort of plan for the mint she harvested, but I'm not sure what that was. We need to teach her to make us mojitos.



In between swim lessons and picking up from summer camp, we baked bread. It's my standard recipe for white sandwich bread: 1 tablespoon yeast, 2.5 cups water, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon salt and 7 cups flour. Usually it's a lovely golden brown, but it's a bit paler today. I always add a half stick of softened butter to the dough after about 10 minutes of kneading, but we were completely out.
