Just multiply it by how ever many medium size loaves you want.
3 c. flour
1 1/4 c. water
1/2 T. yeast
2 T. sugar
2 T. oil
1 t. salt
Bake at 350 for 35 min or 375 for 30 min.

TEMPLE SQUARE

We went to temple square and to the Beehive House over the holidays.
We rode the Front-runner and the Trax.
No car-seats and 5 wild kids!

SNOWMAN

We built our first snowman of the year.
Our kids love the snow-
they're finally old enough to play and not just cry from being cold.

CINDY LOU WHO

Myriam was attacked by her aunt Sophie, the Beautician.
She put a pop bottle in her hair and made her a Who from Who-ville.

FAMOUS PACKER

Packer is on the front page of the January "Friend Magazine"- (www.lds.org)
Grandma is so excited that he is a star- she tells everyone.
She even took him to the distribution center and had him pose by the magazines
and took a picture pretending he was signing autographs.
