Not too far from Wisconsin Dells we found this most spectacular sculpture park, free to visit (though I purchased stuff to contribute); so much to see and I’m sure if we visited again we’d see lots we missed the first time!
Dr Evermor Sculpture Park
Wisconsin Dells
We’ve headed north to cooler weather and to visit the area around Lake Michigan; our first stop is Wisconsin Dells where we stayed in a nice riverside hotel, and took a boat tour – including a lovely walk through Witches Gulch … Wisconsin Dells is heavily touristy (half the businesses seemed to be water parks!) but we managed to avoid the busiest areas.
Making sour dough bread
Our local French Bakery Le Petit Paris has started doing workshops to learn about making their products and today I joined them to learn about making sour dough bread. The course is quite expensive ($140) but it was very fun and I learned lots – and came home with bread!
Stefan, the baker / owner, presents the workshop and had a good set of instructions and good use of time to ensure us four attendees benefited … he began by giving us prepared dough to shape into bread (which went into proving and later was cooked for us to take home); we then moved to being shown how the dough was made, and how sough dough starter is used and care for.
Here’s photos from my morning …
