Tip:s
If
you want to have a warm inviting feeling in your home, when guests will
be arriving for dinner, then bake some bread that day. There is nothing
like the smell of bread baking that says... Welcome!
Sourdough
bread is wonderful served with some warm soup especially Seafood Chowder and /or a great big pot roast
dinner.
It is also a great snack bread when you are just feeling a
little hungry.
