Last night I baked three batches of bread (one spelt, the rest wheat) for Bardic tomorrow. I have six more to do today. My shoulders will feel this!
...and I'm thinking that six might not be enough (it ends up as one loaf, approx 1.25 lbs) for 5 people. Yes, that's a reasonable amount, but when it comes out first with cheese people tend to eat more than they would otherwise.

Hurricane Galen hit last night.

He fell asleep around 8:30, and so he wanted to play at midnight. Whether we were up or not. I was repeatedly awakened by sounds of scrabbling - he tore into a paper bag, dashed from one end of the tub to the other repeatedly (getting quite damp in the process - weird), etc.

Dawn finally gave up, got up around 1 AM, and played with him for half an hour to get him to quiet down. I think that going forward, she's going to have to play with him before she comes to bed just to tire him out.

Spelt bread

I haven't tried this batch, but similar ones I've made in the past haven't been bad. The flour tastes nuttier than wheat.
I made one batch from spelt mostly for [livejournal.com profile] callistotoni, since she is allergic to gluten.
