July Reads

I want to try to get out of this slump. There are two books that I am going to try and get finished this month. I had thought about trying to get all three of these books read but I was just not to sure on if I should aim for three books this month even though I do not doubt I could get all three of them read if I really wanted too. These are re-reads for me so I already know that I love these two books. I love all three of the books I would hope to read but with a vacation this month that is the other reason why I am only picking two of the three books in the trilogy. So without further ado...

Baker's Corner-Herbed Crockpot Bread

Preparing to make this bread. Yes, you read that right! Herbed Crock Pot Bread. I probably thought the same thing that you are thinking right now. You can make bread in the crockpot?!? Where the heck has this been all my life! So I decided that I would try this recipe and I'll let a link to where I found the recipe at the bottom along with the recipe itself. I want to give credit where credit is due. So anyways I was pretty stoked to find a recipe that I could make bread in the crockpot. I want to go ahead and make note that all crockpots are different and not all of them cook at the same temperature. So while the times in this may work for you they did not work for me.
