Italian Bread

This morning I couldn't find anything that looked good for breakfast so I got out a cookbook and found a recipe for this Italian cheese bread that looked really good. I was making it and Caleb pulled the little step ladder we keep in the kitchen up to help. As I was making the filling on the other side of the counter he somehow fell over and brought the bowl full of bread dough on top of him. It was a HUMONGOUS mess! He was covered in dough and by poor design the bowl hit a spot of carpet in the dining room. (Whoever designs houses or apts with carpet near the kitchen or dining room should just expect that carpet to get ruined!) Caleb was crying and got up and ran towards the living room dropping globs of dough as he went. I got his clothes off and dumped him in the tub. Ate some left over brown rice for a very late breakfast, and then Annika woke up. We put her in the bath too. Thankfully both kids were very cooperative. Annika watched Caleb play in his room for a while and then got fussy. But then she fell asleep and slept in her swing long enough for me to clean up all the dough off the carpet. It took quite a while, but I think it's clean. After telling him about five times, Caleb understood that he couldn't come in where the mess was and he played while I cleaned it up. That sort of thing doesn't happen very often so I was very grateful (messes happen, kids being cooperative so I can clean them up is what is harder to come by). I wish I would've gotten a picture of Caleb covered head to foot in bread dough and the piles of it on the floor. Unfortuately the batteries weren't charged. Now the Italian cheese bread is cooking in the oven and my stomach is growling again.
