Challah Fail

In case you guys were interested to know, my Challah bread turned into a regular loaf of slightly dense but super sweet bread.

Around dinner, I realized that it wasn’t going to rise anymore, and it was still too gooey and sticky for me to even attempt to braid it. So I just “poured” it into a bread pan  and stuck it into the oven (while B got mad at me for covering his nice wooden cutting board with sticky dough).

Suprisingly, it rose and baked into yummy bread, which we ate with coconut jam (straight from Singapore) for dessert.

I just ate this slice for breakfast and now I feel like throwing up.

I should have known this wasn’t going to work out. The first and last time I made knishes was awful. I’m never going to be remotely Jewish. Lesson learned.

ediblecenterpieces

I’ve been trying to stay away from all the wedding-related sites unless it’s to look at pretty pictures, because we’re still having a hard time coming to terms with spending such a huge amount of money for a single day.

Then I saw these DIY centerpieces that are eco-friendly, beautiful, unique and DELICIOUS: centerpieces made up of bread and potted herbs, offering guests something to munch on with yummy dips without the expense of stupid flowers that are going to die anyway. How yummy does that look? I LOVE BREAD. The only thing that’s missing from the table is a small sculpture made out of butter.

Then I got to thinking…why can’t more wedding things be edible? Rice paper tableclothes and personalized fruit roll-up favors? A wedding dress made out of cream puffs?

YUMMM…Regardless, I think these centerpieces look super awesome. We could get married in a dirty tent underneath the 101 freeway, but I’m still putting this on the table.

Um…I baked bread. Also knishes, but since I am only half-Jewish (through my new brother-in-law), they only came out half yummy. My life is so exciting.
