day at the beach

I kdyz se prazdniny  pomalu chyly ke konci, leto je stale v plnem proudu. Par fotek z pohodoveho dne na Pisecnem Ostrove.

Even though it's almost time for school again,  summer is still nice and hot. Few photos from relaxing day at  Sandy Island.

No kneed bread

No kneed bread  je chleb, ktery se nemusi pracne zadelavat. Staci jen promichat ingredience, pockat 12 hodin, udelat bochnicek a dat pect.  Uz jsem vas dostatecne navnadila jednoduchosti receptu ? .......tak tady je a  take video pro lepsi predstavu jak na to :

3 hrnky mouky ( ja pouzivam hladkou ale jiste muze byt i polohruba, 1 hrnek 250 ml )
1/4 lzicky instantniho drozdi
1 lzicka soli
promichame a pridame
1 1/2 hrnku vody, vse se rychle promicha jak je videt na videu a da na 12 az 18 hodin odpocinout.

Predehrejeme si troubu a litinovy hrnec na 112 C . Muzeme pouzit i sklenenou nadobu ale dulezite je mit nadobu poradne vyhratou i s poklickou. Chleba se  pece 30 minut priklopeny, pak se poklicka sunda a jeste 15 az 20 minut dopekame v otevrene nadobe.

Myslite si , ze tenhle, na pripravu jednoduchy recept vyzkousite ?

 

Have you ever heard about " No Knead Bread "?  Mark Bittman published the recipe in the NY Times last year. The original recipe came from  Jim Lahey of Sullivan Street Bakery. You can  watch Jim make his bread in this video. Do you think you will give it a try ? I am definitely hooked and even though I use my bread maker machine all the time to make my dough I can't wait to try this recipe..........

Zahrada - Garden

 Dnes jsou tomu prave dva tydny, co jsme se rozloucili z tatou na letisti ve Vancouveru. Rano pred odjezdem jeste rychla zastavka u dcery a posledni obejmuti z pravnouckem Makeefem.

It is two weeks today since we said good buy to my dad at the Vancouver airport. Before we left our town in the morning, we made one more stop at my daughter's house to say good buy. Here is a photo of Makeef's and great grandpa's last hug.

Tata se po celou dobu navstevy vzorne a obetave staral o zahradku, v tom nejlepsim, kdyz vsechno kvete a dozrava, prave odletel domu. Snad ho alespon potesim fotkama.

Dekuji tati, zahradka nikdy nevypadala lepe!

My father took exceptional care of the garden the whole time he was here. He left when everything started to bloom and ripen. I know he will love these photos.

Thank you dad, the garden never looked better!

 Babicka mi na jare poslala seminka rajcat. Tato odruda se jmenuje " Býčí srdce ". Pokazde, kdyz je vidim na ni myslim,. Skoda, ze  se nedozila  toho, aby videla, jak se jim u nas ve skleniku naramne dari........

My grandmother sent me heirloom tomatoes seeds this spring. They are called " Bulls heart " Every time I am in the greenhouse I think of her, she would be pleased to see  how great they are doing .......
