What really brought this home is the bread I baked yesterday. It's yummy out - a honey oat white bread. Slightly too dense and slightly too sweet, but I think it's delicious despite these flaws. If I'd bought this bread in a shop I'd probably buy it again, but only if there was nothing nicer there. And therein lies my bias. Do I judge myself easier or things in a shop / restaurant harder? Or does criticism just not come into the picture at all with the things I make? It's weird.
Anyway. Bread. Yummy. Will be making it again at some stage. Well - I might look out for a different oat bread recipe that uses less honey and more oats.
I've started the big sew-up of my skirt. It's turning out well. Though the ends are a bit weird. They turn in instead of out. Some ironing might be in order. I'll leave you with a picture of the material.
So cute.
I'm turning into a right little domestic lady, amn't I?
Domestic Yes
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, you are turning into a great cook, knitter and all round jack of all trades. Well done. And it's great that you enjoy the cooking and the eating of what you've cooked. I think we are more critical of food we get from professionals because they are professional and we are paying for it.
It is funny, if I cook something nice I'll totally rave about it too. It's a little funny too though because if liam and I cook the same thing I usually prefer my version. My version tends to be a bit spicer though which is the taste that I prefer, liam's tends to be more buttery and herby.
ReplyDeleteI guess by you cooking you are possibly making small modifications to suit your own taste.
i can't wait to see your skirt.
