We were out of potatoes and I didn't feel like making brown rice again, and I thought it was a good day to try and make fresh bread. I did a search for easy bread recipes and I found one to try that lives up to the description of the World's Easiest Homemade Bread. This is a real five-star recipe and I am here to recommend it to you. You don't even knead this dough!
I recommend eating the bread slathered with butter. Life is short!
And speaking of recommendations, let me share a review for a new time-traveling romance by Lexi Post. I received a copy of this book from Net Galley, as always the opinions are mine. Do you like Bridgerton or Outlander? If so, give this book a read, A Pocket in Time is the second book in the Time Weavers, Inc. series. So you can read the first book and then this one or just read the second one, whatever works for you.
In the Author's Note, Lexi Post writes "A Pocket in Time was inspired by Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist." I thought that was a unique place to start this book and as a fan of time-travel and romance, I knew this was a book I would have real fun reading. Katz Almira is the heroine of this story, she is going back to Regency England to steal something that can change the course of history. Among her skill set is pickpocketing so she is perfect for this assignment. She only has two weeks to complete this task or it will be too late to fix the timeline in the present day.
The construct of Katz Almira being in a time and place she doesn't belong in and can't stay in without putting the entire world in peril really raises the stakes on the HEA. How are Jack and Katz going to overcome the literal obstacle of time and space? That is the central mystery of this book and I applaud Lexi Post for making it so hard for these two to get together.
If you like me enjoy characters with hard cynical outsides and gooey marshmallow insides, you'll love Katz and Jack. It's nice to read a story where the male lead is more willing to dive off the deep end and profess his love without the certainty that the female protagonist will return his affections.
4.5 stars to this book. Really great read!
