Mushroom and clam spaghetti

Tonight my dad made mushroom and clam spaghetti and home made rolls .To make the rolls you need .........................
six and a half cups of flour
one and a half tablespoons of yeast
one and a half tablespoons of salt

you have to put the water in a tuber ware container then add the yeast mix it around until there are no more lumps then add the salt and mix it around not for very long then add the flour until it completely mixed put the cover on loosely for 2 to 5 hours then put it in the fridge .And thats how you make the bred dough

About My Life as a Homeschooler

Hello,
My name is Meghann DiPietro. I love to cook, I love animals, and I love to play soccer. I am making this blog because I want to share the recipes that I, and my dad cook. I am 11 years old and have two sisters. I live on a farm (hence the "I love animals"), and cook with my father as much as possible. Altogether we have 50 animals and this is helpful in my love for cooking because some of them we raise for meat. I hope that whoever reads my blog will share their favorite recipes with me!

The Eggplant Thing

Tonight for dinner my father made an eggplant dip. This dip consisted of: one red bell pepper, one red onion, two large eggplants, and a homemade sesame seed paste. The fist step of making this dip was roasting all of the vegetables, then to make the paste. Next he pureed it all together, and baked it on 400 for 45 mins.
To go along with our eggplant dip my dad baked fresh baguettes made from our home made bread dough that we make a couple times a week.
The eggplant dip was very good and brought out the flavor of the bread really well. Unfortunately I am not a big fan of eggplant. :P
