Kitchenettes' Spring Fling

The Kitchenettes' April Spring Fling

Our Hospitality Club had the most magnificent

time enjoying an outdoor tea party and

making homemade bread!

My talented and gifted beloved friend - Jean Crunkilton -

came to my home and taught the Kitchenettes how to make

homemade wheat bread from scratch!

The girls learned step by step how to bake bread

including grinding their own wheat into flour!

Jean is an exceptional teacher - her spirit is loving and gentle

and she is truly inspiring as she imparts her love of baking!

Thank you my treasured friend - what a blessing you are to us all!

We also enjoyed a spectacular brunch outdoors on the porch...

all served on 2 of my most exquisite china sets.

I love to pamper these girls!
