Sourdough Skillet Bread

This recipe is a favorite when you need a quick side bread. It bakes up in minutes and uses the sourdough discard. You can add different fresh herbs or grate some cheese to make it extra special. Using this bread as a sandwich base adds a delightful change to the everyday bread choices. Having a balsamic dipping sauce alongside the bread is a delicious way to eat it as well. I bake this skillet bread in my well seasoned and loved cast-iron skillet.

Summer Surprises and Autumn Anticipations

I thought lambing was done the end of April. We had a great lambing season, with mostly twins and one set of triples. There were two ewes that didn’t lamb, but I knew I was pushing my ram with the number of ewes I had this year, so I was not completely surprised. In June Copper was starting to look quite round.
