Two days before Christmas our oven broke! Seriously? Since I don't start the holiday treat making in advance it pretty much eliminated all baking for me. This is good and bad!
Fast forward 2 months and it is finally fixed! I know I could have and should have done it sooner but "life" got in the way, between family, work, church school, etc. . . Life right? Honestly the only time I would notice it was when I was wanting to make cookies or bread. If we had a serious need or hankering we just used our neighbors oven. She was so great to just let me use her key while she was working. I realized that enough was enough when I went over to her house and heard the smoke alarms before I even got to her back door. No damage, except my burned bread!!! So, to celebrate, today we made BOTH cookies and bread! My house smells wonderful tonight!
