My grandchildren love to cook and bake with me. Since we were hosting church in our home our granddaughter delightedly agreed to help me make the communion bread. ~ "
And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts." Acts 2:46 ~
I have used this recipe successfully well over a hundred times and am always happy with the results. ~"
Bread-baking is one of those almost hypnotic businesses, like a dance from some ancient ceremony. It leaves you filled with one of the world's sweetest smells...there is no chiropractic treatment, no yoga exercise, no hour of meditation in a music throbbing chapel that will leave you emptier of bad thoughts than this homely ceremony of baking bread." M.F.K. Fisher 'The Art Of Eating' ~
This recipe is also very easy for children to make, and with supervision rarely fails to turn out delicious, making everyone happy, especially the child who bakes bread the first time! ~ "
I am going to learn how to make bread tomorrow. So you may imagine me with my sleeves rolled up, mixing flour, milk, soleratus, etc.,
with a deal of grace. I advise you if you don't know how to make the staff of life to learn with dispatch." Emily Dickinson ~
The bread dough rising in the warm sun-room. ~"
Love just doesn't sit there like a stone, it has to be made, like bread ; re-made all the time, made new." Ursula K. LeGuin ~
Voila! Every bit as delicious as it is beautiful and just look at my granddaughter's happy smile. What is the recipe you ask? I would write it out here but instead am going to allow you to click onto the blog of author and farm woman Suzanne McMinn, where I discovered this amazing bread recipe. She gives the history, many pictures , how-to's, and variations of this bread on her delightful blog,*

I loved seeing your smiling granddaughter with the dough! I know your having fun! How I miss this!
Your granddaughter is beautiful and her smile is so warm. She did a great job baking the bread. What a blessing these young ladies are. Remembering each of you in my prayers. May God bless.
How nice! We had communion at our new church today as well.

I should be embarrassed to say I've never made bread, now I'm tempted and seriously thinking I'll try this recipe.
Your granddaughter is beautiful and her bread looks so good !!!
Communion bread, so very special.
Wow!!! This bread looks fantastic!!!
You had a great helper :o)!!! She is so lovely to help you!!!
Had to add the link to my blog - great recipes! Your grandchildren - are they just genetically gorgeous or is it the huge smiles from being so well loved? Hugs to you - wish we could break bread together someday this side of heaven!
I am so glad to see this happy post and pictures of your happy granddaughter. This recipe comes just in time for me. I'm taking over the job of Communion Steward at our church. The lady who has done it for the last 30 years would like to hand over the job, and she always made homemade bread for Communion Sunday. Thank you so much Kathy.
I love the name Cedar Pond it is peaceful. The bread looks great you have wonderful help. B
Wow! The bread looks delicious! Thank you for sharing the place to find this recipe.
Blessings, Wendy
What a big happy smile!
I haven't made bread in a while but I do love the feel of kneading the dough and just letting my mind do what it wants to for a bit.
What a scare that must have been for you finding strangers threatening you with a gun! Your angels must have been right beside you and taking care of you.
My goodness....the rams are beautiful but look a bit intimidating!
Have fun at the fair!
What a sweet time together. I love baking with my granddaughter too, such a precious time together. Your granddaughter is lovely...Christine
Oh that does look delicious! Job well done! I love the smell of fresh baked bread. It's the best. :)
Wonderful post, Kathy~ so sweet to see your "helper" having such a good time in the kitchen with you!
My granddaughters all love to help my wife cook and bake. Grandma love their help too... most of the time :-)
