BEST FRIENDS IN BAKING!!
Meet my best friends in baking....the Nutrimill wheat grinder and the Bosch! Got up early this morning..ground some wheat and made some whole wheat bread dough.
This is my finished product. Believe it or not I cut the recipe down so it would only make 5 loaves. This bread will keep in the freezer for a month. I wish computers had scratch and sniff ....you would be loving the aroma...yummy!!

HOMEMADE BAKING POWDER
Wow!! You can actually make your own baking powder...who would of ever thought? There are times when you are in the middle of a recipe and realize you either don't have enough or have none. Sooo here is the recipe.....
Simply mix these few ingredients together and store in refrigerator. This recipe can be doubled or tripled, but really only make what you plan to use in near future.
This is the best baking soda to buy. It is aluminum free (if you buy baking powder always make sure it is aluminum free....Rumford is the brand you want to buy). The less aluminum we put in our bodies the better (just a little health tip there).
Homemade Baking Powder
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp cornstarch
Simply mix these few ingredients together and store in refrigerator. This recipe can be doubled or tripled, but really only make what you plan to use in near future.

HE KNOWS YOU
Lauren, Julien and Maude are illustrated in a sweet little book called "He Knows You". You can see they are all smiles at Desert Book. They mailed me a copy for Mother's Day and I was absolutely thrilled to see our little munchins in such a tender book. You can't mistake all three kiddos in the top picture and then Lauren is in the second picture. Just had to share!
MERRY MONTH OF MAY
Sunday we attended the Gila Valley dedication. There where no church meetings so everyone was able to go to their Stake Center and be a part of that. Bob and I went to the 9 o'clock and watched Zack & Kami's kids so they could go to the next one. So here is grandpa out in the back yard with the kiddos. They where playing their favorite game "grandpa chase me" when I made them stop so I could take a picture.
Addie finished her first year of preschool and they have a little end of the year graduation. I had Zane that day so we packed him up and went to the festivities. They sang lots of cute songs and poor little Zane cried every time there was hand clapping.
