It's 5:30am. I am up to fill the wood stove. This morning we've warmed up to 29°F, but it feels like 20°. Our "warm up" today is about 45°F. I'm not going out today, even though I had plans. We are getting freezing rain. Not fun to drive in.
My wood splitting partner, aka Hubby, is still at work at this hour. He left at 10:30pm last night and won't be home until late this afternoon.

Carrot Sandwich Bread
I'm not really a fan of baking yeast rising breads when it's colder in my house, so I wanted to try this 1969 cookbook recipe for a sandwich bread.
Homemade Bread, By the Food Editors of Farm Journal © 1969.
The recipe caught my eye, because it uses carrots in the recipe. My first choice in "shortening" in this recipe would be real lard, but I do not have access to any. I used organic, non-hydrogenated shortening. If I keep coming up with reasons for lard, Hubby may reconsider raising our own pigs too.
