Bakery Dreams

Last weekend I traveled to Vermont to take a bread baking class with my family.  It was part of a Christmas gift that my sister and I gave to our parents.  We wanted to have an experience together and we all love baking, so this was perfect.  The class was at the King Arthur Flour Education Center in Norwich, VT.  While in nearby Hanover, NH we came across this snow/ice sculpture:

How appropriate!  I think it was part of Dartmouth's Winter Carnival, but I am not really sure. 

The bread baking class was a success.  We made a white sandwich bread, a braided bread, a Sicilian style artisan loaf, and a batch of scones.  All turned out delicious.  How could they not?  We had a wonderful teacher!  Unfortunately I didn't take many pictures, but here is what I made when I went for a class last year:

Delicious after a few minutes in a wood fired oven!  My sister and I are already planning our next trip.
