A Meal fit for a Leprachaun?

Ashlee was 'in charge' of dinner tonight....so in honor of St. Patrick, she decided that we would have green pancakes!!  There were even some left over for the leprachauns. :)

'Gathering the Wheat'

Tonight at our Relief Society  Enrichment night the theme was 'gathering the wheat'.  Speakers read about how the early Saints(many were Relief Society sisters)  worked so hard to grow and gather wheat to feed their families.  We also had a demonstration on how to make bread and then all of the sisters were given a little loaf of bread.   I  remember when Don and I first got married,  we got a bread machine as a wedding gift.  We would just dump all of the ingredients in the machine and like magic, we would have yummy warm bread.  Many times the irresistable smell of the fresh baked bread would wake us up from a deep sleep and we would get out of bed to have  hot bread and homemade jam for a midnight snack.  Well, we don't have a bread machine anymore, but lately I have been thinking about making bread...and I have to admit I was inspired tonight to actually do it.  However this time

the machine wouldn't be doing the work.  So my question is.....Am I up to the challengeWill my  inspiration last for more than a day? 

We shall see!!
