I have always wanted to bake my own whole wheat bread and actually got a used bread maker before we moved. But, along with some of my most prized possessions I had to leave it in CA 🙁
But, today I searched the web for a super easy bread recipe with the ingredients I already had on hand. I don’t have yeast – so I had to find a recipe without one of the most common ingredients!
I decided on this Whole Wheat Molasses Bread recipe. I didn’t put in the corn meal because I didn’t have it and added an egg and a bit of sugar (I tasted the batter and it was a little bitter).
The downside is this bread is too soft for sandwich making (which was my ultimate goal). And Ben said it looked like gingerbread so he was disappointed it wasn’t a “dessert bread”.
I enjoyed two huge pieces with butta 🙂 This was basically dinner since I had been snacking all afternoon anyways. Busted!
Travel Blogger – Today I text Ben “I want to go to Easter Island!”. I have the travel bug and so does he, so it works. I’ve been researching the Galapagos and Macchu Pichu for a while 🙂 Ben and I love to travel and I love documenting my adventures on the blog. I wish I could make money being a travel blogger. I promise it would be fun to read!
My Travel Bucket List Includes:
– Macchu Pichu
– Australian Outback
– African Safari
– Rome
Our recent adventures:
I sooo have the travel bug – the last year has included Puerto Rico, Italy, England, and San Francisco. Luckily my BF travels a ton for work and we work those loyalty points like nobody’s business.
I have also done an African safari. Out of control, once in a lifetime stuff.
Also, I am heading to Costa Rica in a week! We are staying in Tamarindo. So excited.
australian outback!!! actually, i would say aussie rainforest is even better. 🙂
I want to make that bread!
The bread looks so good!
Why couldn’t you make money as a travel blogger? I think you could do it! Writing about travel and getting paid for it is one of my dreams, too.
I know, I’m going to look into it!
Bread for dinner? Sounds good to me!
Your travel list is far more exciting than mine — I still have an extensive list of U.S. cities I want to visit!
Like you, I’ve always wanted to make my own bread. I haven’t dared to do so yet. But I’ll try to make some soon enough. The bread looks delicious, by the way.

take me on your african safari!
I’d love to go on an African Safari! How cool would it be to see zebras and giraffes just roaming around?? I’d love to see Yellowstone too 🙂
You should totally go to London… it is gourgeous and has a great restaurant scene, which I am sure that you would LOVE!!
I love traveling, too!! My husband’s 10 year reunion is next year and I can’t wait to explore the west coast.
If you want to go to Rome, you should consider doing a hostel tour of the entire country. I did it in college and it was super cheap and a blast!
The bread looks delish!
You definitely need to go to Rome if you haven’t; it’s unreal
Wow that bread is soo dark! Looks great!
I love traveling too! Peru is definitely on my travel bucketlist (Inca trail!!!!). For some reason, China is quickly moving to the top of my list. This year I went to India and Aruba!
MACCHU PICCHU. and despite being really tall i assure you i can fit in a suitcase 🙂
