The holidays are over and it’s time to get back on track with our menu. As part of my No-Spend Challenge, I’ll be taking stock of what we have on hand and using things up in an intentional way. I’m also going to be baking bread and hopefully getting back in that habit. In addition to my personal No-Spend Challenge, I’m also doing a Home Organization Challenge over the next 14 weeks. I won’t be tackling the big chest freezer until next week so I don’t yet have room for the several loaves my regular bread recipe makes. Instead, this week I’m be making a quick beer bread and a crusty artisan bread. Homemade cherry pie is also on the menu this week for our son’s birthday!
