I’m not quite sure how this happened. I made some dough from my Mom’s famous scone recipe, made four scones for me and the hubby, and then put the rest of the dough in one of those silicone baking pans to make a loaf of bread. It rose to just about the top [...]

Saturday was the Correy Station Navy Birthday Ball. In true Laura fashion I spent the whole morning and the previous evening working on my dress. I couldn’t wear anything that I already had in the closet because I have no waist. So I cut up a Michelangelo wedding dress that I’d thrifted [...]
