Soulfulness ...

 I've been in a quiet reflective mood ... A baking/cooking mood. There's something about being in my kitchen, prepping, cooking, baking that feeds my soul ... settling my soul in quiet solitude, as the world goes Covid crazy ... yet again! Our stats are way up, despite the increase number of vaccinated people. I give up! If you need me, you'll find me hiding in my kitchen ... hanging on to my peace.

Last weekend I gave baking Pita another try. If you recall, I made my first attempt way back in March 2020. In all honesty, I stink at Pita making. 

They may look good in the picture, but they did not open very well. So when life gives you Pitas that stinks, you turn them into Pita chips!

Oh, and they are delicious! Even better on the third day! I used kosher salt, next time I'll use a finer salt.

I also did a flat bread recipe from the King Arthur site. The recipe can be found here. I cooked them on a cast iron skillet. They turned out lovely. I think I don't stink at flat breads! lol
They freeze wonderfully and thaw in no time. Great with soups etc. You can even toast them if you'd like. Definitely a staple in my freezer.

Hope all is well with you. Catch you all later! Cheers!

I am with you, I hide at home or get outside to the beach, too much chaos in the world. I make tortillas since I can't eat yeast bread, great for sandwiches and I can reheat them as needed.

Covid has been life changing, that’s for sure! I’m doing the same as you, staying home and not allowing the crazy covid stuff to intrude anymore than it should. We have had a life changing situation because of covid but these empty nesters turned childcare providers (to our granddaughter) are adjusting to that and having her and her mom living with us - again, covid. An adjustment for them as well. At least everyone is healthy and reasonably out of harm’s way. The first case of covid showed up in our granddaughter’s preschool program less than three weeks after we decided to remove her from the school. Whew!! Better safe than sorry. I’ve been quilting and now looking forward to autumn and all the brings. Wishing you continued happy and peaceful days ahead. 🙌🏻

Those look really good. Great idea for the pita bread! I love pita chips anyway.
