Michael came over and made baked pancakes that were spectacular

So tasty, cooked in a bed of golden melted butter in a well-seasoned iron skillet. Each one is baked for 13 minutes, and rises up over the edges of the pan. We made savory and sweet. Sweet didn’t have any additions to the pancake batter. The savory had pancetta and manchego cheese added. So good.

Sourdough Starter: Day 0

Day 0 of sourdough starter madness

After all the wonderful bread that Kristin’s been making, I thought I’d look into trying to make my own sourdough. I’m pretty sure this way lies madness. But I’m giving it a shot. After Googling for info on making sourdough (the ultimate DIY bread) I just mixed together 1 cup water with 1 cup flour in a bowl, and we’ll see where we go from here.

This looks like a good recipe for both starter and Berkley sourdough bread:

Serendipity Ice Cream is Exquisite.

Serendipity Ice Cream is Exquisite

If you’ve forgotten what truly amazing ice cream tastes like, you should try some Serendipity ice cream. It’s made right here in St. Louis, and it is just exquisite. We’ve been eating the Gooey Butter Cake ice cream and the Gold Coast (double chocolate) flavors.

I am not kidding when I say that we have been serving it in our shallow bowls. So we can literally lick them out once we’re done. It is that good.

We buy ours from Local Harvest which is a long walk (or easy bicycle ride) from our house.

If you have the opportunity I completely recommend this delicacy.
