I'm so glad you found the time to fit this in... and that you enjoyed the experience. Funny that the every day implements in our grandmothers kitchens (like rolling pins) feel a little foreign in ours. Beautiful braid.

This was such a delightful challenge & I'm ardently looking for cardamom - why is it soo hard to find? Giz - Yes, savor those moments every chance we get! HoneyB - We totally "get" each other, don't we? Maryann - Thank you, sweetie. Marie - I made the suggestion to give a loaf away & you'd think I was offering up one of our children! Alfredo was certainly opposed to sharing. He said, "Share with ME." Jessie - You're on! If Alfredo let's you have any! Gloria - Muchas gracias, bonita. Farida - You did a great job, as usual. I'm ready to try this again. Christine - Thank you, we are having a great summer. I hope you are too! Amy P - Thank you - I struggle with photography.... :( Faery - Oh! That would have been fun to bake & complain about the heat together! Maybe one day. Ben - This was a super-fun challenge & I definitely learned a thing or two. The other day I made pizza (again!) & my dough raised like NEVER before b/c I used a technique learned during this challenge. Thank YOU! Amy, never full - Thank you, hun! I bet you would be great at this. Lorrie - Grazie mille! Deeba - That's why I adore you - you totally get me. I'm so jealous that the summer holiday is almost over for you. We're going to go on a couple of holidays, but not until the end....argh! Mom - Yes, the monster is great! Thank you. Freeze?!?!? It would never last so long. You know us. Breadchick - Thanks bunches! Laurie - Yes, they did! I bet your family would go through this super-quick. Aparna - Yes, thank you. I totally agree that you have to follow your urges. Abby - You can never go wrong with ice cream. Right?!?! Val - Thank you, dear. It was fun too. Susan - You really flatter me! Next time I hope they look half as good as yours. Tanti baci to all!
