Cinnamon Bread

After many failed attempts at making bread, I finally got it!! Just as I was ready to throw in the towel and swear off bread making for the rest of my natural life, a friend gave me some pointers. She also lives in an old house, with all the lovely ready-made drafts! I made a cinnamon bread recipe from The Pioneer Woman . Micah made me document my success...so here are my pictures!! 

fresh out of the oven...

it's perfect!!

To dye for....

This weekend, we decided to dye Easter eggs with Ezra. I can remember the Easters past, dying eggs with my family...the weird vinegar smell...the impatience of waiting for the egg to color. I wanted Ezra to experience all the fun! Little did I know my boys didn't get the whole excitement thing like I did....oh well, here is the story!



here begins the coloring process...

this is the face you get when you take too many pictures of your husband and son while making them do silly crafts!

Piano for sale

Today I am shamelessly using my blog to sell our piano. This piano belonged to Micah's mom and we inherited it when Micah's dad moved. I had originally planned to continue my piano education with this instrument....well, life proved otherwise!!

As Ezra is getting older, he requires more room and time for therapy. The piano takes up a good chunk of the living room, which happens to be the largest room in the house and consequently where Ez's therapy takes place. It pains me to say this, as a musician, but the piano has become a hindrance rather than a help. This instrument belongs to a home that will get use out of it!!

I had the piano professionally tuned and assessed by Charles Wesco on 3/23/11. He gave it a fantastic passing grade!! There are many more quality playing years left on this instrument!

We are asking $850, but are willing to negotiate.....email me if you are interested or know of someone who is interested, bohemianbotanicals@gmail.com .
