House Warming

Today, in the hot and humid weather, I decided to break in our new home with some freshly baked bread. A friend came over, and we spent three hours kneading, waiting, baking, and chatting...and then, we (and our lucky husbands!) happily enjoyed the smell and taste of freshly baked whole-wheat bread with a bowl of split pea soup. It was a wonderful way of warming up our home.

We moved to Somerville last week, and so far I've been enjoying the new home and neighborhood. Apparently, there are 10 little boys on our block (and no girls!). It's been fun slowly getting to know the neighbors and exploring the new area. I'm looking forward to venturing out on morning runs and afternoon walks this summer.
