I feel like I’m supposed to be posting Fashion Friday today… but I haven’t gotten out of my pajamas in two days! I’m not too sure how often Fashion Friday will be happening in the summer. I guess I’ll just have to post more recipes π
The other day I went out to the farm and got the garden ready with Kelvin! This year I’ll have green beans, peas, lettuce, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplant, peppers, and tomatoes. And probably even more things that I forgot about. Lotsa pics comin’ your way in 3… 2… 1…
After planting and watering everything Kelvin and I went back to the house and made pumpernickel rye bread!
It’s wonderful with peanut butter, avocado, guacamole, or topped with an egg. I’ve tried them all!
Here’s the recipe!
Pumpernickel Rye Bread
2014-06-09 19:15:47
Yields 1
Old fashioned pumpernickel rye bread. Secret ingredient: coffee!
Prep Time
2 hr
Cook Time
27 min
Total Time
2 hr 27 min
Ingredients
- 10 oz warm coffee
- 2 1/4 tsp yeast
- 1 1/2 tsp sugar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp molasses
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 c white flour
- 3/4 c dark rye flour
- 1 c whole wheat flour
- 5 tbsp cocoa powder
- 3/4 tsp onion powder (not onion salt)
Instructions
- In a bread machine, add all of the ingredients. Set the machine to dough setting and let it run its cycle - preferably stirring for 30 minutes then letting it rest for about 50 minutes, or until the dough is 1/2 and inch from the top of the container.
- Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead, turning in at 90 degree angles and folding over itself. Transfer to either a greased pie plate for a round loaf or a bread pan for a regular loaf. Flour lightly and cover with a dishcloth for about 45 minutes or until the dough resembles a loaf of bread.
- Bake uncovered at 350 for 27 minutes or until crust is to your liking. Spread a stick of butter around the crust so it doesn't get hard.

Happy Friday!!
all look great π
Thanks Lucy!
I’m hoping to plant my garden soon too! It’s current;y a weed patch, but I’m on planning on changing that asap! Your garden looks perfect. π And so does that bread! I’ve been wanting to make homemade bread. I think it would be fun to experiment with sourdough!

Sourdough sounds crazy to make! I hear you have to let it ferment for a couple days?!
I cannot believe how amazing your pictures are <3 I love the shots of the plants, especially π

Thanks Liz! I really love photography!
Is that really how asparagus grows!? That is so cool! My family and I planted a garden this summer too and luckily we’ve been getting LOTS of rain to water it! I can’t wait to see how all of our veggies turn out!

Yep, that’s how it grows! I found out last summer and I was so surprised! I’m so excited for the veggies to be ready – there’s something that tastes so good when you grew them yourself!
Oh how I wish I had land to plant on, I miss it so much!! Theres nothing better than home grown!!!
Thanks for stopping by Oh My Heartsie Girl this week, I appreciate it!!!
Happy Day to all fathers in your family!!

Thanks Brittany! Please don’t feel bad about saying it again – it makes my day! π
Salut Minougirl!
I found your blog thru Allie’s blog. I’ve loved reading about your life and food stories. I also used to struggle with disordered eating. It’s a process, putting all that behind and loving to live fully – and food is needed for that – again. I’ll surely be back in the future.
Bises!
