August is a busy month in the kitchen for me and I've snapped a few photos as I've gone along. These are all from the past week. Peach pound cake with carmel glaze, bread, a lobster dinner (I do many, many of these!), fish soaked in buttermilk, roast pork. I made that bread yesterday and it is almost completely gone so I will make more today. I like to make 1 lb loaves. If you like to make bread, invest in a good quality bread knife - makes all the world of difference in cutting! In Austria we actually have a seperate meat slicer for bread. Bread will dull a cutting blade so that is why we need 2 slicers.

As we move into September things will slow down a bit for me. On Tuesday my son starts 1st grade and then I will have the time to sit down and find my desk again. My quarter is July/Aug/Sept so that is perfect timing!

I'm looking foward to the remainder of September. The weather is always so nice and my days a bit more evenly paced. Even so, I woke up at 4:30 am today - it is hard to shake a routine!

I had this thought last night after I published this post... my Nana would have said "cooking with gas".

I am glad I already had my breakfast!! All that food could make a person hungry!!
That looks so good!! And I have never made a lobster before.
Son is in grade one this year. Wow. Enjoy the fall.
I agree about the knife for bread - it makes a huge differnce in the cutting if you've got a good blade. Never thought of a seperate meat cutter though. If I made alot of bread, I could see doing it that way.
Yummy! Please share how you prepare your lobster, I've never done it and would love to try it, you make everything look so easy.
