I know many folks have tried their hand at making sourdough bread during this time of stay at home. I have experienced watching the process from beginning to end and then getting to taste the distinct delicious product. Watching an artist create has been a fantastic way to spend my time. I have been a witness for 50 years as Denise realized that there was a reason why people were jealous when they heard someone they had been invited to come over to Mary Quigley’s house for diner. Over the years she has practiced her art just like her Mom did. Cooking and baking as a gift is an old fashioned value that continues at our house.

From mixing to pulling it out of the oven Denise trusts the process and knows the secret ingredient makes the end results worth it all. It’s the love that makes it happen.
