White Loaves

This is the first recipe for Tuesdays with Dorie, Baking with Julia.  Lily (my 9 year old daughter) and I made these loaves on Sunday before the Superbowl.  It was 80 degrees in our house so we didn't have any trouble with the dough rising.  My KitchenAid mixer bowl got stuck on the stand but there was help on the KitchenAid website.  Everyone in my family liked the bread.

The plan is to bake two recipes a month from Baking with Julia.  Next up is Chocolate Truffle Tartlets.

First Blog Post Ever!

This is a little scary but I read about Tuesdays with Dorie and thought it would be fun to bake along as they start their next book, Baking with Julia by Dorie Greenspan.  I've had this book since the late 90s.  It has moved from Texas to Florida, to California to Virginia to Alaska to Hawaii.  I have never baked anything from it.  Baking starts Feb 7 with the White Loaves on pages 81-82.
