I enjoyed reading everything. You are lucky about the fire. I watched your video on making apple butter. You have me wanting to make a batch. My father loved apple butter. I think my mother cooked some on the stove top. She made strawberry jam or preserves. What’s the difference? I know I could google. The camera needed to be adjusted to show you slicing and cutting up the apples. Not so much what was above your head. You probably realized that afterwards. Your other videos have turned out well. I need to try my hand at using zoom. Deborah S Prather in Fredericksburg, Virginia originally from Louisville, Kentucky my hometown. I am homesick.

I find a backpack works well for holding garden tools. Not as attractive as your basket. But it means I have both hands free for carrying pickings back to the house.

In reply to Darrell Hanson. Yes, it would work. I sometimes use my lefse pin for crackers. Gives them a fun texture with no extra work.

These look really good! Might have to try them but I think I will use my thin bread rolling pin. I cut my thin bread right out of the oven so they slice nice – might work well for these too. Thanks for sharing!

In reply to Ann M Cramphorn. Hi Annie! What a pleasure to "see" you here! You certainly have a story to tell. My goodness. This is proof that God works all things together for good. Even the awful things that you mentioned. They're part of your story and He alone is able to redeem loss and weave it into something more beautiful than we can imagine. Sending you a hug. Love, Michele

Comment on KitchenAid vs. Bosch vs. Ankarsrum: Best Mixer for Bread Dough by Michele Pryse, FNTP

In reply to Tom Reese. Hi Tom, it is an amazing sale, so for anyone leaning in the direction of a Bosch with cash on hand this would be a wonderful time to purchase. It sounds like you have made up your mind for an Ankarsrum Assistent - you won't be sorry. A heavy duty mixer is a purchase you live with for many years, so you want to be sure to get the right one for your needs.

In reply to Bhanu Iyer. I'm so glad, Bhanu! Thank you for letting me know it worked for you. I thought it was a brilliant idea. I saw it on a video somewhere and it really works. And thank you for teaching me all those years ago to make chapattis. XOXOX Michele
