Baking bread, whether as an occupation or as a hobby, is extremely satisfying. Bakers have almost complete control over their bread, requiring little more than some very simple ingredients, time and the willingness to get his or her hands a little messy.
Pretzel bread is not quite a simple as flat bread or dinner rolls, but the loaves come out of the oven with a deep, brown pretzel crust and a slightly sweet, tender center. This particular recipe should be treated as a base to which other ingredients may be added. Cinnamon and extra brown sugar can create a sweet pretzel, or garlic and other spices can create a more savory pretzel. The loaves can be baked into mini-loaves, sandwich loaves or just cut into chunks and served as a snack. If you come up with something good, leave it in the comments. But now for the bread.

Better Than Takeout Orange Chicken. Yesterday as I stood in the kitchen trying to figure out what to make for dinner I wondered to myself, how do those people do it on those shows where they are given random ingredients and are suppose come up with something genius. I think I stood there for a solid 20 minutes looking in the cupboards and staring into the freezer hoping that I would be struck by some ingenious idea.

Crockpot Cooking. Recipes for Two. My Own Sweet Thyme: Mushroom Coconut Soup. Ever know two people you never thought of as having anything in common and yet find that they really hit it off and make a great couple or turn out to be the best of friends? That’s sort of the way I would have thought about mushrooms and coconut.
Truth is, I love mushrooms. Coconut, on the other hand, has been more of an acquired taste. As a child I avoided the stringy little bits of shredded coconut that were found in Christmas cookies and on Ambrosia Salads or German Chocolate Cakes. Even so, as I was thumbing through cookbooks from my cookbook shelf recently, I found just such a recipe. I was so intrigued with the Mushroom Soup with Coconut recipe, I vowed to give it a try. Unfortunately I mixed up the dates and missed the deadline for the Vegetable Love round-up.
While this soup was perfect for Valentine’s Day it is also a great spring recipe.
