Having fresh bread in the house makes me feel so good. Secure somehow, like no matter what we have in the house, at least I can make myself a sandwich.
Other things that make me feel a similar contentedness and satisfaction:
- having fabric or yarn for a new project
- a mowed lawn
- a clean house
- a stocked refridgerator
- a weeded garden
- a fire going in our hearth with plenty more wood to keep us warm all winter
There is an element of being prepared in all of these things--prepared to start something new, whether culinary or craft project; prepared for guests with a clean house and plenty of food; prepared for the long Vermont winter that isn't far away.
They all require constant upkeep, too. But it feels good to have this constantly renewed sense of satisfaction!

I have the clean house satisfaction today. Until Andrew wakes up for his afternoon rampage!
I love these photos. You have a great house for photography. NIce lighting, but nice wood/brick/textile mix. Maybe I'll take my baking to your place for a photo shoot...or even better...my son. hmmm....
Anytime you're in town, you're welcome here! We could even do our baking together and have a really big photo shoot!
