  🍞 Gluten-Free ? Try checking for a gluten-free bakery in your area because the difference between that bread, and store bought is astonishing. I live in a rural area with one variety store in the nearest village. They order in the best sorghum gluten free bread from a bakery over 160 km away. It's tasty and dense but not too heavy, perfect for sandwiches or toast. The same bakery makes cookies, pies, cakes and cinnamon buns.* *more long distance walking may be required #Food

  Northern Catalpa,also known as the Cigar, Worm or Bait tree "the wood's beautiful grain is for furniture, interior trim and cabinetry. Catalpa has one of the lowest shrinkage/expansion rates of any hardwood.The tree is often sought out by fishing enthusiasts, not for the plant itself, but for a common parasite that is used as bait. The catalpa moth is widely regarded as one of the best live baits, and the tree may be planted strictly for this purpose." #MyWalks #Canada
