Instagram post 2329038323308199258_3936447359 Well, the house renovation got sidelined by an overload of cuteness last week. Meet Moose and Smudge... and don’t let these photos fool you into thinking they are always sleepy. These two play constantly!

.
While I still have to build a mantle/trim the bedroom fireplace... now that it’s installed in place there’s no longer a big hole in the wall. So I’m turning my attention to this bad boy in the dining room!!

Instagram post 2292294291668393850_3936447359 So happy to have this wonderful park just down the road - makes this whole daily exercise thing a lot more fun.
Instagram post 2274096412827163871_3936447359 Move aside basic sourdough... momma’s got a new favourite!
.
Since my starter isn’t active enough yet for my normal sourdough recipe, I’ve been experimenting with adding the discard starter into my no-knead bread recipe. I threw in a couple of folds last night because, why not... but this bread takes zero effort (hence the title ‘no-knead’). Anyone could make it and just look at the result!! 😍😍

Instagram post 2273366542467855509_3936447359 Like many people, I’ve found this self-isolation to be the kick I needed to start baking bread again. My new loaves aren’t working quite like they used to (my starter isn’t as active yet) but that’s the fun with baking. It’s all trial and error until you find a recipe and method that works for you - there’s no real ‘right’ way to do it!
.
This photo is from when I had my old starter. Going to have to try and find a way to work with my new temperamental one 😂

Instagram post 2264635976495436832_3936447359 Sanding our 100+ year old floorboards, while super-duper rewarding... takes fricken aaaaages. It also makes an insane amount of dust. Fun fact - my arm hairs are not blonde, that is just a coating of dust 😂
