I have been experimenting with homemade breads made with a sourdough starter.  This particular loaf is a wheat and spelt flour loaf.  I decided to bake both loaves at once and they turned into a twin loaf almost shaped like a peanut.   Baking them in a Dutch oven gives them that crusty outer layer.   Here is breakfast with butter and honeycomb.  I also love strawberry jam with it.  I have also been experimenting with different rye breads.  Soon I hope to sprout some grains and make different sprouted breads.  

Over the weekend I did a painting demo at Earth Angels Studios in Florida, NY. People really liked the chickadees.  But I feel like more people were impressed that I could paint sideways. :D Almost finished! What a great audience!  Including online friends via Facebook live for @jensearthangels and other pages. More of my art at her gallery, which is in an old ice house.
