DIY: Simple Monster Costume Sewing Tutorial

Halloween and costumes have never been my favorite. However, seeing the holiday through the eyes of my Two Year Old has been pretty fun this year. When we started asking him at the beginning of the month what he’d like to be for Halloween, he hesitated exactly 2 seconds before explaining he wanted to be a Yellow Monster. Where this conviction and idea came from, I’ve yet to discover, but, he had a clear vision in mind for a Yellow Monster Costume, and I was thrilled to help bring his vision to life.

I’ve tried baking Whole Wheat breads in the past and have always had a hard time getting a nice light and fluffy Sandwich Bread, but, with this recipe (which has changed and tweaked quite a bit!) I get two foolproof loaves each and every time!
