If I may say so, they were quite good! Of course, homemade bread is always better fresh. It has toughened up a bit over the last day or two. But, I have to admit, I am rather impressed that I was able to do it. Don't know that I will do it again anytime soon (since we don't buy hot dogs very often), but for some goofy reason, I find satisfaction in knowing that I can if I want to.In the last 2 weeks, I have implemented a great schedule, gotten my kids started on a terrific chore system, learned to bake all sorts of new things from scratch, and generally have a clean house and happy family. I had this smug satisfaction creeping up on me this week. I mean, it is all too easy to let these kinds of things go to my head! I mean, hey, I was in control! I guess someone decided I needed a bit of humble pie. Yesterday, JR came downstairs after his afternoon nap. I helped him get a little snack, and left to finish whatever I was working on. I heard some strange noises coming out of the kitchen, so I returned to check on things. This is what I found:
JR had finished the snack I gave him, grabbed the jar of peanut butter, gotten onto the counter and made himself comfortable (not something that my kids generally do unless we are actively creating something in the kitchen, and ONLY with permission), gotten a spoon out of the drawer, and was chowing down on peanut butter! I honestly didn't know whether to scold or laugh, so I just shook my head and grabbed my camera. I do love my children and the surprises they throw my way!

Too funny! And, congrats on the hotdog buns.
Good for you! Bread is something I am still trying to master. I was so happy to see you following my blog, as I have been enjoying reading yours, too! You are so very encouraging in how you are choosing to raise these wonderful children God has given you. Thanks for sharing it with all of us in blogland! Terri
