Over the weekend
Steve came down from observing on Thursday, so we got to have a fun weekend together. On Friday, we went to a party then played some poker (I came in 2nd), Saturday we took Leyna to the park, went grocery shopping, and I made for the very first time homemade bread. I had used my bread machine before, but had never made it by hand. I made 2 braided egg breads, the first of which I did a 4 section braid and covered 2 strand with poppy seeds and 2 strands with sesame seeds, and the second I did a three strand braid and sweetened the egg wash with some vanilla and sprinkled cinnamon and sugar on top. They came out amazing, and for lunch today we’re going to have french toast with the cinnamon bread. Should be awesome. On Sunday, I went hiking with he pup and then went to a late lunch with friends at one of my favorite restaurants in Chile- Entre Rocas, then Sunday night Steve and I went to a friends house for some poker, neither of us came in the money 🙁 You win some, you lose some. One other thing I did this weekend thanks to our friend Adam, I have now become addicted to Weboggle and play it non stop, the best place i’ve come in is 37th out of 198, but it’s a ton of fun, though it sucks you in…
cute Leyna pics (she sometimes acts as though she can’t hear us, but I’m not buying it with those ears)…

Is my grandpuppy getting ready to make a left turn or a right turn from under the table? It’s hard to tell from this angle. Maybe she’s waiting for the braid to come to the table?
The braids look fabulous. Next time try stuffing them. Besides Grandma’s poppyseed filling, we always liked her grated apples with cinnamon/sugar and butter.
