Five good things that happened this week.
1. The Young One sent a nice picture of herself in a cute shirt with cats.
2. We had been hoping for a typical New England Saturday night supper, hot dogs with brown bread. Since Memorial Day (end of May) Himself wasn't able to find brown bread. All the store managers told him it was backordered. He finally found some at Walmart.
3.I had a no-hassle shoe return using Happy Returns at Ulta and an Amazon return at Kohl's.
4. I bought an Apple Lightning Adapter so I could return the one on loan from the WAM IT Department.
5. This week was the last class until the Fall. We had fun doing some faux gilding.
How was your week?
My week has been good. Yours does too. I haven't had a New England Saturday night hot dog dinner in ages. Did you used to have them every Saturday night also? Think it's time for some brown bread too. I was thinking about it the other day. Enjoy this day. Is it a bit too chilly for you?
ReplyDeleteYes, my dad liked the Saturday night hot dog dinner. You have that nice recipe to make brown bread muffins, too. I didn't have the rye or whole wheat flours on hand or I might have baked them. The weather is nice though I don't mind the humidity
DeleteA good week.

DeleteThe highlight of my week was an Amazon delivery! (A 16ft charging cord for my iPad so I can sit comfortably in the living room while I 'create'! LOL)
ReplyDeleteI'm getting an Amazon delivery today!
DeleteI didn't know about New England Brown Bread before, so I googled it to find out more. I found a recipe that sounds good and simple. That means if you ever have trouble finding brown bread, you can maybe make it yourself: https://www.bowlofdelicious.com/brown-bread/

Easy as long as you keep wheat flour and rye flour on hand, which I usually don't have
DeleteOoh, I love Ulta! When you say brown bread, do you mean wheat bread or is that something else?
ReplyDeleteNew England Brown Bread is a combination of wheat flour and rye, sweetened with brown sugar and molasses. Traditionally baked in a tin can. The size of a large baked bean can.
DeleteI can't image not having brown bread! Happy weekend, hugs!
ReplyDeleteI think this brown bread is different from the brown bread you are used to
DeleteNew England brown bread sounds interesting. I like hot dogs, but we don't often have them - once a year or so.
ReplyDeleteWe don't eat hot dogs much either. I prefer hamburgers, but every once in a while there's a craving
DeleteIs that bread in a can?!
ReplyDeleteMy week has been odd, with at least one social thing scheduled every day. So strange!
Yes, the bread is baked in the can

I new heard of Brown bread in a can and i spent alot of my childhood in Pa and NJ... why have i never heard of this...? Like hotdogs on the grill once in a blue moon with mustard.. Mom used to always boil hotdogs on the stove though.. Loved 'Old Nat King Cole' hotdogs... Hugs! deb
PA and NJ aren't New England so that's probably why you never heard of it. It's a real regional thing
DeleteI remember having brown bread as a child,. but have never seen it in stores here. Not sure where my grands found it in KS.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it was more popular in the past
