Today I am busy baking bread for Mammies Cupboard. We are inundated with evacuees from New Orleans. It is expected we will receive tropical force winds and gusts to hurricane force with double digit inches of rain. There is a steady stream of cars coming through our community heading north. All hotels and motels and 3 local shelters are full.
I am sure we will lose power. Our generator will not run my oven as well as the air conditioner, so I am baking bread today. I bake a pumpernickle bread they use to make Ruebens. I usually make 8 to 12 loaves a week for them. With all the extra folks in town, they will probably be calling for more bread.
Keep your fingers crossed for us and a little prayer wouldn't hurt either!

I'll be thinking of all those in the path of this storm. I pray it's not a repeat of Katrina but it sure doesn't look good now.

I've been watching CNN all day, and will probably be doing the same tomorrow. I managed to put my shoulder out kneading a whacking great cushion of dough yesterday, so can't do much of anything. You are in our prayers tonight and for as long as you need us. Please God, you will all be safe!
Blessings and prayers, from all of us on the West coast.
