Wacky Wednesday crochet?

 Ok, I'll work on a title for that one. 

I added 4 granny squares last week and I did the same since Sunday's post. It was a crochet type of week I guess. I did one in country blue, which is my medium and 3 lights. 


I was very excited this morning when I woke up and saw the sourdough starter finally behaved and rose last night and fell a bit this morning. I decided to try making a bread. It is in the oven right now. I'm just so excited it finally rose. Not sure if it was the warmer temps (it's been in the 80's all week) or that I switched to a bottle of water a few days ago when feeding it, or the new flour from Sams's club I just got into. Anyway... baking bread smells yummy.
I just need to find a recipe where the Dutch oven is not in the oven at 500 degrees for an hour. I pulled it out when the smell bugged me with 20 minutes to go. It was still plenty hot when I added the bread on the parchment paper to bake. I think the next batch will be in my Stonewear bread pans. 
We will see how it tastes for breakfast with some eggs.

How did the bread turn out? It looks yummy! There is definitely something very homey and cozy about the smell of baking bread!

That bread looks beautiful--bet it tasted amazing for breakfast...
your crochet blocks are mounting up...I like crocheting blocks as they mount up pretty quickly ...
We are waiting for a a freezing rain event starting later on today--right now it's 35 with the barometer falling steeply...snow is not bad, but freezing stuff is awful...hugs, julierose

500 degrees sounds excessive I would be afraid to have it that high and not burn
