In my past life people came to my house and told me they “wanted my life.” My dreamy days were a luxury in a fast paced, consumer driven world. It was easy to want my life when it was quaint and you could slip into a little homestead fantasy, but do you still want my life now? (Personally I think I’m more interesting now that I have more to talk about then my ex boyfriend LOL) And if the answer is yes then come and see what new things are cooking in my cauldron in a place that you’ve likely never been in a time when rethinking everything is what it’s going to take. Fall retreats are sold out, but we have a few openings this summer with @mosquitosupperclub teaching Cajun Cooking and me leading three days of bread and wood fired baking instructions. Oh Yhea, plus a old time house concert, a film night and a bourbon tasting with @kristinmosmith. July can’t come soon enough. Check out the RETREATS tab on my website!

Our grits didn’t arrive in time so this weeks CSB gets ramp pesto bread instead! Each loaf got a healthy slather of pesto inside and is proofing in a bed of ramp leaves. I’m kinda a purist when it comes to bread so if felt pretty naughty to dollop all that filling. We’ll see how it goes!
Yeast and bacteria stamps for our CSB bread bags!
HAPPY EARTH DAY! This pic of our gorgeous planet was taken in Northern Vermont near @sterlingcollegevt. I’ll be there teaching a week long baking course informed by my roots: art and community involvement. The class is an experimental look at baking as art, art as nourishment and the role of community in both. Learn more or register on Sterling Colleges School of the American Farmstead website.

Running around the community kitchen trying to find a good spot for a pic. Ended up in a hallway near the pantry, but anyhow, very happy about warmer weather and this crumb!
