There are good bread days ...

And then there are days like ... today!

Jaenne came over earlier, and I had some dough in the bread maker that I was ready to throw in the oven.  When I opened the cover to the bread maker and looked inside, the dough was in a small ball at the bottom of the bread pan.  That's weird, I thought.  I was on the phone when I threw all of the ingredients into the bread maker, so I must have missed something.  Oh well ... so I heated up the oven and threw it in there anyway.  About ten minutes later, it dawned on me.  I don't remember putting yeast in!!  Of course!  Hence the reason it didn't rise, and still wasn't!  Yuck!  So I basically made a loaf of bread for the chickens.  No biggie.  I started another batch of dough with Jaenne there, and was sure to put the yeast it. 

Jaenne took off, and I worked with a new dog a bit (more on her in a minute), and went over to my neighbor's house to see how they were doing.  I came back ... and Jaenne!  I took a photo of it because you wouldn't believe me if I just told you.  THIS is what I came home to!



Too funny.  I couldn't get it right today to save my life.

So I added a dog to the crew today.  The name she came with is Maddie.  I need to change that ... very soon.



She is very camera shy and very hard to take photos of.




She's 9 months old, comes from a ranch in Payette, and showed me some nice stuff when I put her on my sheep earlier.  I look forward to working with her.  She is a bit short on socialization and is getting settled in.  She's doing great, and I'm sure in another week, this place will be old hat to her.

  1. She is a pretty girl. If she already knows her name, it might be tough to change it, unless the name sounds similar, like Mattie or Maude or Molly.
