AMERICA!
Happy Independence Day ya'll! We are spending the day harvesting red, white, and blue potatoes for our Wednesday CSA pick-up, adding supers to the busy bee hives, and eating every slice of the apple pie that I made last night. It was my first try with apple pie, and I am pretty pleased with how it turned out! I have been obsessing lately over Jesse's copy of Williams-Sonoma Essentials of Baking....it is ridiculously fancy and over the top and I never follow the recipes (orange zest doesn't grow in our garden), but the instructions for basics like bread kneading and proofing and pie crusts are so helpful.I am not sure what we will do with our evening, as fireworks are pretty much out of the question around these parts ("explosive fire conditions"). What are you doing for the Fourth?- Hannah.
