Nothing to see here

Mmmmm...
This is my favorite soup!! French Lentil Soup. And this time I made it with fresh tomatoes!
On the side there you see a few slices of Artisan Bread in Five, which I haven't made in a while and am really glad I did again! It's so great and easy for nice loaves to eat with supper! A super supper! Not sure I can top this tonight for D.'s birthday dinner- he requested Niskena with bread- got the bread covered, hope the soup turns out okay.

Finished "Where Angels Fear to Tread" and the end was a little fuddly. Goddess this, goddess that, confusion etc. etc. But it was an interesting read, if not a little breathy.

Started "The Bean Trees" by Kingsolver, very enjoyable.

Got a chance to work a few repeats of the lace blanket, am repeating the 4 row repeat three times instead of four to see if this helps with the puffy thermal aspect of the pattern- can't hurt.
