{Merrow} Bread

I hope y’all had a relaxing, extended weekend. I did, except I woke up with a severe crick in my neck this morning. If I need to look to the right I have to turn my entire body. My children find it entertaining. I find it annoying. And painful. Basically, painfully annoying.

I sewed a new apron over the weekend. It has ruffles and denim. I call it Blueberry Cobbler. Check it out. Actually, I did a lot of sewing over the weekend. I broke down and bought season eight of 24 from Amazon. I just couldn’t take it anymore. I was suffering severe withdrawal symptoms. No worries, though. I’m all good now. ;-)

Now, the recipe I’m going to share with y’all is dangerous. It’s buttery. It’s crunchy. It’s OH! so yummy. I guarantee you’ll want to eat the entire pan.

My dear friend, Mrs. Merrow, made this recipe all the time when I was growing up. Whenever our family would go over for a visit, she would make several pans. Clearly, she understood the power of the bread.

Here’s what you’ll need:

{Combine the flour and sugar mixture with the milk. Stir until combined. Hold off on the butter for a minute.}

I would like to apologize in advance for the poundage you will gain. Some things are just worth it, aren’t they?

    Why did you have to put such an easy-peasy recipe on there? I came home from Coco’s and have officially gained 2 pounds over the weekend. I think I’m going to check myself in for some easy-buttery-bread therapy. And it’s all your fault.

    Merrow bread! I love it. So easy, so delicious, so healthy ;) . As your brother just said to me Merrow bread: butter, a little bread, and butter.

    I hope your neck gets better today. What a pain! (Sorry, i couldn’t resist)

    The apron is adorable and much too cute to mess up. I would put an apron over that apron, just to protect it. :)

    Congrats on the 24! My current obsession is My Name is Earl. I seriously heart Earl.

    The bread: what kind of texture? Soft? Like a bread stick? You’re tempting me. I’ve got butter on hand at all times, for just such opportunities!
