Bagels

I know that sometimes I seem to post things that seem a bit random and off of the general crafty, gardening, farming topic but to me it is all related. Take for instance my husbands desire to make bagels. Yes, you can make bagels in your own kitchen. You just need a willingness to delay gratification and investigate the process. Agricultural living takes time. You do a lot of things for yourself and enjoy the process of doing it. It really is a lifestyle and the satisfaction that is had from "doing it yourself" lasts much longer than the experience of plucking the bag from the grocery store shelf! Thanks for the bagels baby, you are amazing!
