cherry almond bread

Well, remember my previous post? You know, the kitchen failure? Well… I did a re-do.

Guess what?

It worked.

I think it’s going to be made a lot.Especially once school starts. Because it’s perfect for breakfasts and lunchboxes. It can be bread or muffins, also. Yay to that. 🙂

So, this one came out much better. Yippee to that. It’s so disappointing when things don’t happen as you think they are. But, then again… it all worked out, because I know it was comporting to y’all that I screw up. I do… a lot.

For instance:

I once burnt a pot so bad it melted. Literally the metal melted.

What was I making? Pasta.I was boiling water and walked away.

I didn’t know my stove could get that hot.

Anyway… it’s almost back to school time here (2 weeks) and that means sandwich-season. I found this awesome “cookbook” of sandwiches. Can that really be called a cookbook? I mean, you really don’t “cook” them.  I know, some you cook… but this “cookbook” just has lunchbox ones.

Some are really “weird” – cream cheese and chutney anyone? Butter and radish?

I guess I call them weird because I have never had them.  I’ll have to try them so then I can call them weird and gross.
