RDP Sunday: Rise

The sun is rising as it does usually every morning, although not always so spectacular. Often the clouds hide the event. Generally I get a good picture of it towards the end of Winter.

However, it is not only the sun that rises. I used to bake my own bread almost daily. I had the routine and it worked well for all of us. I would mix the pastry with yeast and leave the pastry to rise. Afterwards beat it down again and again leave to rise in the baking form. I had the routine, no problem, That was when Mr. Swiss was still at home and my son and I and so it was worthwhile. Now with Mr. Swiss in his golden oldie home and only one son at home and I, it is no longer worth the work involved. Although it was probably economical, the oven had to be heated and the electrivity ca href=”osts were quite high.

  1. How true. We recently bought a bread maker machine and we love it, although sometimes we have to freeze half if our son isn’t around. The biggest difficulty is in cutting it, so we also bought a cutting guide.

    • My son got me a bread maker many years ago, but with time and practice I discovered that I did not need it. I made my own pastry and let it rise and baked it afterwards. I did not like the shape of the bread in the machine an preferred my own.
