Can't you just see and smell this Sweet Potato Bread baking away in this gorgeous yellow kitchen??







How about in this gorgeous kitchen that belongs to Tim's cousin Peaches and her partner Herb??! Coolest kitchen ever. 
That's all, just coolest kitchen ever.

Herb is from England and made a Yorkshire Pudding meal for Tim and me a couple years ago. Out-of-this-world fantastic is what that meal was!! Click here to see the pictures.








So anyway, let's start with the fixins for this moist, tasty Sweet Potato Loaf!
Picture
Pretty simple baking ingredients, eh!
By the way, this recipe came from thug kitchen vegan facebook page.




First, 


shred up that sweet potato!

Next, mix the milk and apple cider vinegar together.


This creates a thicker liquid, similar to buttermilk.





Picture


In a large bowl, 


mix the oil, 
vanilla extract 
and ground flaxseeds.






Now pour the milk liquid into the large bowl with oil and add the shredded sweet potatoes...



Pour the flour mixture in with the wet ingredients and stir 'er up!....

Scoop the ingredients into the loaf pan and level the top....See!! Wasn't this super simple so far?!!
Picture


This smells heavenly even before it goes in the oven.










Bake at 350 for 45-60 minutes. 
Your house will smell like a lovely autumn day, by the way.
Picture


I baked mine for 55 minutes until the toothpick came out clean.





Let the loaf cool, 
then release from the pan......
yum, I can smell it now!



Don't be shy, slice some up!!! 
See the steam rising? Mmmmm....

Oh crap, I forgot to mention, I kept this loaf nut free but oh me, oh my, this would have been even more awesome with the crunch and taste of almonds or walnuts!
Picture



This loaf is super moist and paired very well with a slather of butter on top 
and a hot cup of coffee, of course.
Two days later, it was just as moist, too!

THAT  KITCHEN  IS
Picture



 YOU KNOW....I LOVES ME THE 
CLASSIC COUNTRY FROM THE  70S too!!!
The other night I was listening to Dottie West 
and Porter Wagoner......

On my 
state-of-the-art,
 
high quality,


 stereo system.









You remember Dottie, don't you??
Picture

Dottie was born in 1932.


 She was a close friend of Patsy Cline.

This is Dottie's album from  1964 with her breakout song Here Comes My baby.






Picture
And this is Dottie 
from the late 70s in her Bob Mackie designed outfit. 




NOW do you remember her?



Dang, she look good!





Picture
In the 80s, Dottie had success singing duets and touring with 
Kenny Rogers.


A couple of their hits were 

Every Time Two Fools Collide and 
What Are We Doing In Love.








This is their song 
What Are We Doing In Love.






One of Dottie's most famous work was in the 70s, writing and singing the very popular jingle and song for Coca-cola, Country Sunshine.

Remember this commercial, guys?

Okay, I know it was rural America in the 70s , but don't you think Ma and Pa looked 90 years old here, or it just me?? :):)






This is Dottie singing the song she's most famous for.




Dottie sure had her ups and downs in her personal and professional life. 
Her life was tragically cut short by a freak car accident on the way to a performance
at the age of 58.
Picture

In 1995 a movie was made about her life called 

Big Dreams & Broken Hearts starring 
Michele Lee.



I actually remember watching this movie on tv. Anybody else remember watching that movie or reading about her?


She was one tough lady, 
no wonder her and Patsy Cline got along so well!





Okay y'all, that's enough 70s reminiscing for today....gotta get back to work, just had five vehicles delivered this afternoon and this 70s chick has to go out and clean on some very groovy vehicles now!! :)





Hey, have a good night Guys, and we'll talk at ya soon!
