I painted a piece of furniture for the first time. I had to call my furniture-decorating-savvy sister-in-law Talane to ask how to open a can of paint. Some good mistakes/lessons I learned: Make sure you buy the right color of paint the first time. Never paint in a favorite shirt. Make sure the paint brush is completely dry when you do the second coat.
Considering all the mistakes, I think it turned out okay!
I'm not sure if I haven't made whole wheat bread before, but I for sure have not made whole wheat bread straight from the wheat kernels to flour to bread. I used my Bosche machine with a whole wheat bread recipe that came with the Bosche.
DELISH. I think I ate a whole mini-loaf by myself right out of the oven.
I feel like the Little Red Hen making the bread from scratch :)
I also made STRAWBERRY JAM for the first time away from family. SO yummy! No wonder--12 cups of sugar in 12 jam jars . . . 
. . . it goes really well with the fresh bread! And I'm excited to use it with pancakes/waffles, toast, dinner rolls, biscuits, etc etc etc . . . today for lunch I was perfectly content with my PB&J sandwich.
