 Week three food list

1. 30 - 50 pounds of flour, whole wheat or white your choice (50 pound bag for larger families wanting to get ahead with a bit more.)

2. 25-pound bag of sugar (cost is still under $12.00 these days depending on where you go) this is supposed to go up in price this year again, stores about forever.

3. 2 to 3 pound sealed bag of instant yeast. (After this is opened it can be kept in a refrigerator or cool place.)

4. Large box baking soda. (I open ours and store in glass or plastic jars to keep moisture out with date.)

Dough will be sticky, but if way to sticky add more flour. Using floured hands mix dough. When smooth but still damp it is ready for shaping. Divide dough into two loaves, rounded. Place on a greased and floured baking sheet. With a sharp knife dipped in flour cut a deep cross in the top of each loaf. Dust each loaf with flour and blow off excess. Bake 40 to 45 minutes at 425 degrees.

Many other breads, rolls, muffins, biscuits and things like pancakes and etc. can now be made.

Woke up to snow again, it wasn't at midnight yet. I know I got up to travel to the bathroom and looked out the window to see the chicken coop wide open with the light on, gadsssssssssss.
To top it off the gate to the chicken yard was hooked open. 

Dh had let the chickens run around in the yard and filled their waterers and we got so busy with grand daughter and sending things to daughter in AZ for a college class, (she needed all kinds of family info for psychology class). Family traits, blood types, health problems pictures I felt like I had homework lol. So we forgot to close them up.
I get dressed and am about to go out the bedroom door and dh wakes up to ask what I am doing lol.
We left the coop open dear and we don't need a chicken massacre.
I was surprised an unenterprising owl hadn't already flown in there.
