Day of Cooking

Today was a lazy day full of cooking and throwing snow balls at the dogs on the pond. Leslie and Mike came over for a day of baking and getting fat. Success on both fronts, at least on my part. I had started off the day thinking I would boil down some maple sap but the taps stayed frozen most of the day so I didn't get nearly enough to even bother with. Here is what most of our day consisted of. The two loaves on the left were made by Mike and had this really thick and hard crust but an airy center that went great with a little butter. The center loaves were a french bread filled with olives from the olive bar at Wegman's and the pizza was a white garlic pizza.
