Bread

Bread making is fascinating.  Combine a few simple ingredients, add some leavening, mix, knead, stretch, and wait.  Then, from the oven wafts a rewarding scent that warms the soul and sends you running for the butter and honey.

When the girls were young, I made bread totally from scratch even grinding a week’s worth of wheat at a time so the nutrients would be intact.  I loved bread making day.

Nowadays, David tries to eat as gluten free as possible and I simply don’t need to be eating an entire loaf of bread.   So, when livestock season winds down and my hands long to dig into dough, who can I bake for?

And what about David?  Where can I turn to allow him the pleasure of sandwich bread or a muffin that doesn’t taste like bland sawdust?

Two years ago, I launched the idea of Call Ahead Bread…a line of products baked just for you at Love Led Farm.  You simply contact me with your order, then come to Love Led Farm to pick it up.

The favorites are back:  Oatmeal Honey Sandwich Bread, Pumpkin Bread, Banana Bread, Grandma’s Fresh Apple Cake, and more. 

This year, I also have a wonderful surprise for you:  an entire line of gluten-free breads and baked goods,  created by our daughter, Meg.   These are good–I mean really delicious!

Consider today’s post to be an introduction.  Next week, we will talk more about my products.  What are your choices?  How does “Call Ahead Bread” work?

Then I will devote an entire post to Meg’s new gluten-free bakery:  Flourful Bake Shop.  No need to wait until then to sample her luscious choices, though.  Look her up on Facebook at Flourful Bake Shop or on Instagram at flourful.bake.shop.

And to tempt you further, here are just two of her offerings.  Trust me–these are David tested, David approved.

What can we bake for you, Friends, on Love Led Farm?

Warmly,
