Ahh!

I haven't written lately due to constant go go go. I've hardly had time to even sit at the computer. On top of all the busy busy stuff, my husband was really sick, now my 3 year old is sick but starting to get better and now I'm getting sick.

I did however start another batch of artisan bread today. It's in the fridge and ready to be used. I experimented and put a bit of herb in the dough. We'll see what happens. I am also starting to research on how to make homemade bagels. Really no harder than making regular breads. There's mixing, rising, and kneading. There's also boiling involved so this little venture will be interesting and I'll probably do that in the next couple days IF I can kick this nasty cold that my body is fighting hard.

I'll be making myself and the rest of the family some chicken noodle soup with fresh baked bread tomorrow. I had some tortilla soup today from La Casita - only the best little Mexican restaurant in the whole world. It's a tiny little restaurant that my husband has been taking me to since we started dating. They know him well and always remember me when I go in there without them and they use fresh local food. I know this for a fact when we ran into one of the owners at the local market. Anyways, they have a special little place in both our hearts so it's always nice to know I can get good soup from them b/c I don't make torilla soup for myself.

I'm gonna go to bed early and try to get some good sleep. Oh and, tonight was girls night, even though I had to cut it short. It was homemade pizza night which was a bit different than what we normally do. I was really mad at myself for forgetting my camera so I didn't get pictures. The dough was awesome! We made Meditteranian and Thai chicken pizza. I've never ventured outside the typical pizza and I've always wondered why people would want chicken on pizza...until tonight! It was SOOOO good!

Goodnight!
