Last week we had our third baking class after the last class was cancelled due to the chef falling ill. Last week we made two different types of bread- Victorian Milk loaf and Muesli bread.
The victorian milk loaf freshly out of the oven.
The sliced loaf placed in the plastic container.
The muesli bread with dried apricots and walnuts.
The kids love the Victorian Milk loaf but not the muesli bread.
I too prefer the plain bread as compared to one filled with nuts and fruits.
April was a Rey busy month as I signed up for a four week bread baking class and a couple cooking class on the weekends. Each weekend was jam packed with activities as I attended class and we took the kids out to parks and shopping as their dad is home this month.
#2- Bread baking is really different from cake making. It really takes much more effort and time as compared to making a cake. It can take between three and eight hours just to develop the dough before proofing, shaping it and getting it into the oven. A cake on the other hand only takes me the most two hours to bake and another one to two hours to decorate depending on the difficulty of the 3d design that was chosen. Cookies are the easiest to make as it only takes me about an hour max to shape and bake.
#3- We had a peak into the car when I listed the 10 things I have in my car. What do you have in your car?

#5- I wrote about one of the most important promises which I had made and am still keeping- The Vow
#6 – We are big on healthy eating and getting the kids to eat right. Food is one of my passions and my kids share this passion too.
#7- I read a few books but the most interesting one was Test Success as it gave me an inside to on how to analyze how my kids handle being in a Test situation and I was given the tools to teach them how to cope effectively.
#8- I had a Daddy guest post on Dominique’s Desk this month. He wrote a really funny piece of how he was coping with his kids while cooking turkey. Check out- This Capon is Cooked- So’s is my goose
