The Gypsy Baker

Bella leaves the focaccia for its first rise.


And heads back to shape it for the second rise.


It was very good, with plenty of rosemary.

  8. I love the apron and the fabric of both the apron and skirt. Did you make the apron Anna? It's really nice!

  9. Yes, I made her apron (Daisy has one in the same fabric). Skirt was a great thrifting find. I love how she brings it all together!

  11. I kept wondering what ELSE she's doing that is calling her away from the kitchen? What is she running to? I also love the leggings that keep her all modest in her excitement!

  14. you captured a moment in these photos that brings to mind my own girlhood - learning to bake bread but still finding satisfaction with the my play house in the woods. Running back and forth between the worlds of childhood and womanhood..
