The October Challenge over at the Daring Kitchen was Povitica
(hosted by Jenni of The Gingered Whisk). A traditional European dessert bread
that is by far one of the most delicious breads I've eaten.
I cannot wait for next month to see what the challenge is! (As if I really need a reason to be in the kitchen.)

Its been quite awhile since I've challenged myself in the kitchen. Kids and work and "life" just get in the way. So when I heard about The Daring Kitchen and the monthly challenges, I quickly signed myself up! What a great reason to bake something I might not otherwise get to.
It was some of the most fun I've had in my kitchen in a long time. As with any yeast bread, it was a process, but very much worth it. It was a full days process for me, but that is mostly because I have a cold kitchen and things take forever and a day to rise.
I ended up using all the filling on the first loaf (I think I may have added a few too many nuts resulting in a very thick filling). So for the second loaf, I kept it simple with sugar and cinnamon and butter. And then forgot to take a picture. But it was beautiful! And delicious!
Can you tell I enjoyed eating it? Its been my breakfast, snack and dessert all week.
