#12 08/19/08 "Barley, Barley, Barley"


Today I did two new things:  I helped my dad take down our 15 foot swimming pool, and I made 9 cups of barley flour instead of wheat flour.  My mom went to run errands and had asked me to make some wheat flour so she could make homemade wheat bread.  So I, being old enough to do this simple task, began to grind the grain I though was wheat.  It most definately was not wheat grain, it was BARLEY!!  My mom got a good laugh, and I felt like an idiot for a couple hours.  But now I know what it looks like, and I'll never mess it up again!
