I was driving home the other day and I thought back to an afternoon a couple years ago when I took my kids to visit my cousin. It was lunch time and she was just pulling homemade bread out of the oven. We all sat down for a huge slice of hot bread with butter and honey and some cantaloupe and strawberries. I remember her kids gobbling it up and running back outside to play. I sat there and thought - Wow! Your kids eat this for lunch and love it. What about the fruit snacks and chips, etc. etc.? And no picky eaters!
When I got home I told Jeremy that I wanted to start making bread and feeding the kids bread with butter and honey and fruit for lunch this summer. Healthy and simple! And a lot less hassle at the grocery store.
I was so excited today when the bread turned out great and Macy couldn't wait to eat it. And yes, Macy, Lauren and I had hot bread with butter and honey and apples and chocolate milk for lunch today!
Thank you Spring for the inspiration and the delicious recipe!
