Good day; cinnamon raison bread!

[beth_leonard]

Today turned out to be a pretty good day, despite it being one of those days where I don't get a chance to sit down at my computer and veg out until 9:30pm.

Now that the kids are in school and my number of projects is down to a reasonable number, I've gotten spoiled in that for many hours of the day I get to choose what I want to be doing at any given moment. Today was not one of those days. What I needed to be doing was dictated by the schedule or by a desire to please those around me. When I can make it work so that pleasing others pleases me too, the day can turn out all right.

The kids made their own pizzas at a pizza parlor with the Cub Scouts last night, and they wanted to make more pizza dough today. We got it made, kneeded, and rising between karate camp and Peter's theater practice, but there wasn't time to actually make pizza for dinner. After dinner we decided to turn it into cinnamon raison bread instead.

I let the kids stay up a few minutes late to be able to taste it hot out of the oven, and despite being made with a pizza-crust recipe, I think it turned out pretty yummy.
