It all started with a lemon! 1.2.14

This morning is the 2nd day in January... Crap, is it seriously 2014!  Wow.

This means, a new year, new organizing, you know, out with the old, in with the new etc... As I was doing dishes I saw that I had 4 lemons that were at that 'use it or loose it' stage.  As I looked out the window still doing dishes I thought - Lemon Poppy Bread in the bread maker.  I. Heart. My. Bread Maker.  So, 4 lemons meant 2 loafs!I have a Cuisinart Bread Maker and it is a gem!  Great for breads, jams, doughs - you name it!  More to come on that in later blogs. 

So 2 loafs later... One posted below resting on the counter where I had the epiphany - gazing into the snow!  Snow days make for great bread making days.

So... A lemon, really isn't just a lemon.  Be creative with items, I say it all the time, citrus of any kind is so versatile, from savory to sweet!
Enjoy,
