Homemade Bread Nourishes Body and Soul
Pilgrim Loaf a delicious surprise
Good, homemade bread is part and parcel to the way we give thanks for our many blessings. Hot,
nourishing homemade bread is as much an emblem of the celebration of our bounty as the dinner table,
overflowing with fruits and vegetables.
The Pilgrim Loaf is a delicious surprise. From its dark color and varied texture, some will assume
it s a whole wheat recipe, but it solely uses all-purpose flour. Its dark color comes from molasses and
brown rice. The Pilgrim L o af s robust, strong crust, with its cornmeal crunch, belies a surprisingly fluffy
interior. The fluff comes from cooked brown rice grains which blend transparently with fabric of bread.
It s quite a trick! One-halt cup of pecans, walnuts or hazelnuts lend a nutty flavor and add to the complex
texture of this rising sun-shaped

Directions
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup cornmeal, undissolved yeast, and salt. Heat water, butter,
honey, and molasses until very warm (120°F to 130°F). Gradually add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes
at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in rice, nuts and enough remaining
flour to make a soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10
minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
Roll dough to 9-inch circle. Fold in half, slightly off center, so top layer is set back 1 inch from bottom
edge. With sharp knife, make 4 equally spaced cuts from curved edge toward folded edge, about 21
3 of the way across loaf (cutting through both layers). Place on greased baking sheet that has been
sprinkled with 1 tablespoon cornmeal. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size,
about 45 minutes.
Sprinkle top of loaf with remaining cornmeal. Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes or until done. Remove
from sheet; cool on wire rack.
* 1-1/2. cups cooked rice equals about 1/3 cup uncooked wild rice or 1/2 cup uncooked brown rice.

Dear Deanna!
The other day, I discovered that my fiance's apartment is in another
man s name becauseof her bad credit. To make matters worse, she’s
been driving a leased car the entire 3 years w e’ve been together and
she lied about that too. I now have cold feet and don’t want to marry
her because of this deception. -B ry ce; Greenville, SC

Dear Bryce:
Run Spot Run. Get the hint? You got it bad— a lying woman with
bad credit. Look at the big picture. Once a liar alwaysa liar, but with
time, bad credit can be fixed. Go with her to credit counseling and
get some advance marriage counseling too. You can do bad by
yourself and don’t need to end up with the short end of the stick
and have to permanently support a trifling woman.

himself? If your son enjoys football and ballet, let him do both and
help your husband see that your son is happy. While you're at it,
enroll him in karate too. This way, when kids tease him about ballet,
he can do a few chops and a couple of drop kicks and keep on
trucking.
Dear Deanna!
I ’ m in my last year o f high school and one of my girlfriends is ready
to quit during senior year. She’s stressing and going through drama
over a boy that used her for sex. She doesn’t want to come to school
because she can 't stand the sight o f seeing him with another girl.
How can I convince her that he’s not worth sacrificing her educa­
tion? -Gladys; Natchez, MS
Dear Deanna!
Help me with this problem before my husband has a fit. I enrolled
my 10-yearold son in ballet lessons but my husband wants him to
play football too. He wants me to take my son out of dance class
because he's afraid he’ll be teased and made to feel like he’s gay
or something. How do I choose between ballet and football for my
son? --Mother o f A Dancer; Pittsburgh, PA
Dear Gladys:
Slap her upside her head real hard to knock the sense back into her.
Your friend is going through the vulnerable stage o f puppy love
although she’s been dogged by a wolf. Help her make an appoint­
ment with your school guidance counselor as well as encourage her
to talk to her parents. Continue to be a good friend and encourage
her to hang in there because without that diploma, she’ll join the
ranks of unemployment, welfare and ifshe’slucky— flipping burgers.
Dear Mother:
Hello out there! What does your son have to say about all of this
or is he afraid o f hurting someone’s feelings by making the decision
