Before the arrival of baby G, I would now and then have what I called my “domestic diva” days. Days when fresh bread got made, knitting projects were finished, and the list of household tasks got noticeably smaller. I hadn’t really had one since, until Sunday.
Fresh bread got made:
(this is a recipe from Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day; I can’t say enough about how much I love this book! This is the only way I can manage fresh bread with the baby.)
I finished spinning and washing some yarn:
This is from Martha’s Vineyard Fiber Farm; it’s a delicious cormo/mohair mix. I think I want to dye it but I’m not sure yet.
The boy and I took a nice walk down to river, where we saw this:
Only two this week. Last week there were six!
And asparagus risotto for dinner, with the asparagus from our first CSA box of the season.
There was strawberry-rhubarb crunch too, with the fruit from the CSA, but we ate it all before I could get a picture.
It felt really good to have a day like that. It raised my ambitions for this weekend.
