Cat Days of Summer

Really Mattie?  The kitchen table?  Sheesh.  She must think she's queen of the castle today.  Good grief.

Meet Aurora (black calico) and Joey (golden tiger)They think the lawn furniture was put outside for their convenience.

Day 3 of Bread Making

I did it!  I used a recipe from Oklahoma Pastry Cloth, and the dough was perfect.
