Blue Ribbon Basket of Bread

Pin It Now!

Here's a (albeit deplorably lit) photo of a quite delightful basket, that I put together the other day (just for fun).

I wanted to share the idea, but I just may take a new photo for the future. If not, when I figure out my terrific photo software*, perhaps I will just adjust the lighting digitally. Until then, you get the IDEA!

The contents include, clock-wise:
A beautiful loaf of sandwich wheat bread,
An 11-inch nylon spreader, which I may just purchase a smaller one next time.
A pint of my nearly "All-Fruit" jam Apricot & Pineapple Preserves. 
A Norpro butter keeper, something that I just ADORE.
A liner, which is simply a blue-checked place mat.
And finally, the basket is stuffed with newsprint, to give all the contents a nice lift.

The little lift-jars, in the foreground, are filled with (whole-grain*) wheat, one is WHITE wheat; the other is RED. All, in all, I thought the basket turned out rather cute.

Please do chime in... with what you think or what you might add!

Love,
Sharon Anne

* Paint.net is the free-ware program, that I used to design my blog logo!
* All-Fruit Jam, my SECRET will be revealed in a future post.
* Another topic, I'd love to discuss, is how to make the best wheat breads.

Oh so much to say, with so little time! What's a beginner BLOGGER to do?
