Where do students learn now? Is this happening near you as well?⁣ ⁣ Yesterday I was able to teach my first No-Knead Sourdough class for kids. To make one dough for the week to turn into English muffins, focaccia flatbread, pizza, and sandwich bread. ⁣ ⁣ I’m looking forward to seeing how this class and information can empower young people and families!

Throwback to my first encounter with challah in sp Throwback to my first encounter with challah in spring of 2018. ⁣ ⁣ I’m so excited to teach my first sourdough challah class tomorrow @gut_check_yourself !🎉⁣ ⁣ Such a timely bread. ⁣ ⁣ It is typically enjoyed at the beginning of sabbath—24 hours of rest and play, no work. What a gift. ⁣ ⁣ The braids represent unity—how we are all different but are woven together under God to serve him. ⁣ ⁣ I’m excited for students to not only get the mechanics and skills to make this bread but also to get the heart of what is known as “taking challah”. ♥️⁣ ⁣ If you can’t make it to class or are out of the area, you can check out my previous recipe on my site with the story behind this bakery visit (pictured) and my first sourdough challah recipe version. New one for this class! 🙌🏼
“Better a dry crust with peace than a house full “Better a dry crust with peace than a house full of feasting with strife.” (Proverbs 17:1)⁣ ⁣ My husband had never noticed that verse before. But how true is it?! ⁣ ⁣ It applies to many situations but in this incredible and sometimes crazy journey of parenting, it is a pretty critical lesson. ⁣ ⁣ I recently shared some of my simple graze snacks/meals or kid friendly charcuterie—whatever you wish to call it. 🤪 In a recent post on my site. ⁣ ⁣ I’m learning to embrace simple and unlearn performance, maximizing, multitasking, etc. It’s not an easy discipline but the things in life that matter most require our full attention, screen free presence, and space. ⁣ ⁣ Let your kitchen be a space for rest and simplicity and connection this weekend!⁣ ⁣ ♥️🥖 Jenny
When winter starts to become a memory as spring fl When winter starts to become a memory as spring flowers begin blooming here and there, the hope of renewal refreshes us from our weary state. And aren’t we weary? One year since we locked ourselves in. One year since the world seemed to crack under the pressure of confinement and fear. In our household we also begin to anticipate preparation for celebrating Jesus’ death and resurrection. We remember the curse of the winter of death—so dark and hopeless—that was broken forever when the one who called himself, the Resurrection and the Life, claimed triumph and authority 3 days later. Before this took place, Jesus was praying and asked the Father to glorify His name. Father God responded, “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”( John 12:28) He will do it again… ........ The rest of the post and the recipe for a sourdough version of Twice-Baked Seeded Raisin Bread Crackers is on my site. 🌷
