Bread Day

Sis. Sarah taught us how to make different kinds of bread!  She taught us about ingredient reactions and relationships.  For instance yeast feeds on simple sugar and releases carbon dioxide that makes the dough rise.  The oil makes the bread more tender and increases the shelf life. 

To start off she demonstrated how to make raisin bread, cinnamon rolls, dinner rolls, pigs in a blanket, sopapillas, and white bread with dough she had already mixed up. 

These were baked and enjoyed as the afternoon snack. 

The last thing we did was make up our own dough.  Each person was equipped with measuring spoons/cups, a BIG bowl, and the ingredients.  Then we each put our dough into a greased Ziploc bag and took it home to create our own baked goods.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was nice to have Laurisa join us for class all the way from Alabama.

 

 

 

-Woodworking-

 

Sis. Melissa has done an awesome job teaching the boys class!  This time she taught how to make wooden candy dispensers. Special thanks to Uncle Karl and Uncle David for cutting the wood before the class. 

She referred to the scripture in Psalms:

My meditation on Him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the Lord.
