UPDATE JULY 11th 2022.
My friend Aubrey painted me a picture of a lady bug and dropped it over last night.
I featured the story of Aubrey and my friend Esther in a recent podcast.
The painting is going up on my bedroom wall next to a painting Aubreys Mom Amber Hicken crafted for me a few years ago.
I spent an hour looking for a frame worthy of Aubreys work.
I will cherish this painting forever.
I love being friends with gifted and Christlike people!

Our Boulder Stake hosted a preparedness fair and I asked Esther to help by baking twenty loaves of her bread. It was the hit of the event as we had dozens of people stop by our table to sample the bread. We served it with butter and it was so yummy!

Put rack on lowest part of oven.
In Kitchen aid mixer bowl add:4 1/2 C Cold Tap Water1/2 C Extra Virgin Olive Oil2/3 C Agave Nectar2 TBS Sea Salt10 tsp Yeast

3. Turn on Oven to 170 degrees, put timer on just one min – turn off oven.

5. Take out and knead dough five times.
6. Second rising: Put dough in bowl, cover with plastic wrap, back in oven for 30 more minutes
7. Knead 5 times, cut in half, roll to size of pans with your hands. Put dough in loaf pans, and cover with same plastic wrap. Put pans in lower rack in over, rise 50-65 minutes – try to let it rise 2 ½ to 3 inches above the rim of the pan.
8. Take loaf out of over, remove wrap.
Preheat ove to 375. Cook at least 20 minutes or until the center of the loaf is 170 degrees. Use a baking thermometer to test the temp.
