DC: A Pizza Town

  Our first day in DC was a really productive one.    We were up and out the door at a pretty impressive time.  Starting at the WWII Memorial, we headed to the Vietnam Wall, followed by the Lincoln Memorial, and then the Korean War Memorial.          You’d think that would have tired us out, but we pushed on, continuing past the Washington Memorial to the Holocaust Museum. But since it was already busy, we got tickets to return (at 3 pm) and decided to make use of the down time by… Read more >

Herbed Bread Twists

  Rise.    And shine. After a few recent failures, it’s such a relief to FINALLY have a success story with yeast dough.    Up until this point, the only loaves that were both edible and risen were from my bread machine, which lead me to believe I was unable to knead on my own. Hallelujah!       This dough is truly flexible and can be used for everything from bread twists, to soft pretzels, to pizza dough. Basic Dough: 1 1/2 cup warm water 1 tbsp sugar 2 1/4 tsp active yeast (1… Read more >
