Okay, so who says that Oprah gets to own "Favorite Things". I know we have talked about some of my fav's in the past.....Torani Syrups, Tomato paste in a tube, The Big Green Egg but this little brown bag from King Arthur Flour has got to be a staple in anyones home if you love cinnamon. I LOVE CINNAMON. I just happened upon this product. No one recommended this. I was looking to buy the finest cinnmon in the world.....vietnamese cinnamon. King Arthur Flour carries it in their store in Vermont and also does mailorder. Also, if you bake and don't get this catalog go to http://www.kingarthurflour.com/. Now, I know you are saying to yourself....I can buy flour, extracts etc. in the store why would I mail order flour. Some stores do carry their items but definately not all of their items. Their flour in my opinion is one of the best to bake with. The one item I have never seen anywhere is the "cinnamon filling". You get a 24 oz. bag for $5.95 which is enough to make several batches of buns or 4 loaves or so of bread. You mix 1/4 c. of mix with 1 tablespoon of water......THAT'S IT. It makes this gloopy gloppy schloppy wonderful cinnamon schmear. You just spread on your dough and bake. It will be better than any cinnamon bread or bun you have ever made yourself. It is truly bakery quality......it stays thick and moist. I have to pace myself or I would eat a whole loaf of this stuff. I cheat and buy frozen bread dough from schwans....thaw in the fridge overnight.....pull it out to rise.....roll it out....schmear it on and bake for 40 minutes. Shipping is only like $5.95 also so it is worth trying. You won't regret it and if you do I will send you a check for $5.95 less shipping and handling. What are you waiting for??? GO ORDER IT NOW!!!!!!!!! This stuff is soooo good that one of the girls that babysits for us on our date night requires this cinnamon bread as payment and will except NO MONEY. THAT IS HOW GOOD IT IS!!!
Sourdough starter update: Sourdough starter is looking good. Had my first signs of hooch yesterday which is a good thang. We are going on 3 days today. I feed it everyday at 4:00. In about a week we will be looking at making sourdough bread bowls to fill with some kind of homemade soup. Who's coming for supper??

Great advice! We make homemade bread all the time - so I will have to try this out!!
I love bread. Low Carb dieters can burn in H-E-double toothpicks. If you exercise you can eat bread, pasta etc.....just don't eat a whole loaf....EVERYTHING in moderation.
you are changing my life everyday!
i'm molly's friend, danielle...i think we met a couple of times. she told me about your blog and i've been reading it nonstop!
Hey, Danielle, of course I remember you. I have looked at your blog several times from Molly's link. LOL....too funny. I never commented though because I didn't have a xanga account and it kept posting anonymously on Molly's. How is it going??? I have looked at Dave's site too..from Molly's link. OH MY GOSH....he is too cute Danielle... GOOD WORK on baggin' that one for marriage!!!
You girls know where that bread shows up don't you? IN YOUR BUNS!
Stacey, would you mind me adding you to my blog buds? My friends would enjoy your cooking expertise!
Lora, please add me to your blog buds. I am clueless...I have been trying to figure out how to have "bloggy friends" listed all night. I can't seem to figure it out. I want a counter also and can't seem to do that. I keep asking my son for help and he just keeps laughing. Now I know how my parents felt hahahaha.
One at a time-1st buddies-
Go to Page layout on the page you usually click to start your post. Down on the right side you will see "Add Element" Go to "Add Links" and it will take you through the steps. If this does not work for you, we will figure out a way to "talk or chat" and I will walk you through it. Once you get this set up I will walk you through the counter add on.
Thanks, I will try that Lora. I can add a video but I can't seem to add friends hahaha.
