Look, Up in the Sky




MyGirl and I walked to the mall to get the things we needed for cooking and baking yesterday.  It was a beautiful day.  It was nice and sunny and the sky was beautiful.  (The sky is always beautiful.)

I was so confident about the weather behaving that not only did I leave the laundry out to dry, but I also left a container of "five minutes a day dough" on a bench outside to rise.  On a normal day in the home country, I would simply leave dough on the kitchen counter and it would rise beautifully every time (granting I didn't kill the yeast with water that was too hot).  Here Down Under, I feel that room temperature is not always as cooperative to rising dough so I have resorted to placing dough in the oven which I bring up to about 80 to 90 degrees then turn off.  However, yesterday, in spite it being the middle of winter, it was a nice warm day and I felt the outside temperature would be nice enough to get my dough rising.

True enough.  When MyGirl and I got back from our walk, the dough was all the way up to the cover of the container and ready to go.

Beautiful, beautiful day.

Let us thank the Lord for everyday is beautiful.  And when look up in the sky, there does not need to be a bird or a plane (or Superman), the sky is more than enough.
