Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
At the outset of being quarantined there was a need to take control of what I could, find ways to be creative, and challenge myself to learn something new. So I began a regimen of walking (10,000 steps a day as prescribed by Dr.Woo), renewing an old habit from my Berkeley days of baking bread - how my kids laughed at those old recipes!

At first yeast was hard to come by, but I persisted. And finally, given that three of my kids had become vegan, my Covid cooking has been heavily vegan.

Recipes from minimalistbaker.com. See their sweet potato- red lentil soup that I made yesterday.

Also I haven’t bought bread since quarantine began, making English muffins, raisin, anadama, cracked wheat, oatmeal breads. Hope you enjoy my Quick bread recipe!
