Bread Recipe

Some of you were interested in my bread recipe. You can give it a go, but it might also be helpful to get together, so I can talk you through it.

My mom taught me how to make bread. I don't even know where she got this recipe. :0)

*Mix 6 cups luke warm water (sometimes I do hot and just have it cool down to the right temperature...this helps the sugar to dissolve nicely) with 5 table spoons sugar.

*When water is luke warm, sprinkler in 2 tablespoons yeast.

*Once yeast has activated, add 2 table spoons salt and 5 table spoons oil.

*Stir in the flour (I use best for bread, white, and whole wheat. I visited Roger's Foods (half way to Armstrong) for the first time this summer and was pleased with their flour) This varies each time. You just add it a scoop at a time until it feels right! This is the step that it's best for me to teach you in person for, if you are interested.

Wildlife Park

If you are planning to attend the field trip to the wildlife park, please let me know by Oct. 1.

I'm pretty sure we have 10 confirmed, so with 2 more that would make it $5 per child. I will try to get it so that parents are free.

Jan Hunt edit - AGAIN

Ok, now this time the date is set in stone, never to be changed:

Tuesday, Oct. 21, at the Senior Centre (ok, that part could be changed.......) in Falkland.

Jan Hunt in Falkland

The Jan Hunt night has been moved to Monday, Oct. 20 - 6:30 pm. (it was originally set for the 22nd but she is on her way to Edmonton from here so wanted an extra day or 2 to drive).

It will be $15 per person, $20 for couples (what a great deal!).

Hope some of you can make it out!

Friday hike anyone?

Is anyone interested in a hike on Friday? I'm thinking of either silver star so we can see it before it snows, or perhaps the little hike at the top of the blue jay subdivision.

Meeting Reminder

Thursday night - 7 pm. See you there!
