Saturday

Martha and I took a bread making class at the Fat Tuscan Cafe today.  It is a beautiful restored building.

Our teacher and owner Michelle Reeves closed her cafe and is now just teaching classes and hosting private parties. Her mother is an Italian from Italy and her father is from Georgia...so she has grown up in both countries.

Martha and I had a ball...it was so nice to talk about food for three hours with people who love to cook.

 So..we kneaded, slapped, pinched and stretched our dough...

...and let it rise.

We are already talking about taking another cooking class...maybe pasta making.

 Ready for baking...We took ours home for baking.

 A good time had all...

This is my dough after I bring it home and after its second rising...Because of time constrains we made mini French loafs...

Dinner...

French bread with butter, crock pot roast with potaotes, carrots and celery and a brocolli, tomatoe and avacado salad.

Dessert...
