Cinnamon Raisin Irish Bread


I really should have had a Valentine’s dessert ready for you guys, but you can find some suitable ones from years past here, here, here  and here. I’m so crazy busy lately, that I goofed it for today.

As many of you know, next to baking, the photography is right there with being a crazy-obsessive passion of mine. And if you follow me on Instagram, then you’ll often hear me bemoan my own photography.

To clarify, for all those that want to tell me to shut-up (and you may still after my clarification), it’s not about perfection. I don’t actually believe in perfection. It’s about learning and growing as a creative. I hate that stagnant feeling where everything looks, feels and tastes the same. Thankfully, not only have I been partnering up with Matt lately on the photography, he’s got some of his own headstrong ideas for what he likes. Which is great because it’s pushing me creatively.

Along with that, I’ve recently picked up a photography job that required me to make and shoot bread. Bread isn’t something I’ve naturally gravitated towards, but this recent project has helped me to find joy in something I don’t usually have patience for. And this Cinnamon Raisin Soda Bread is such an easy and great recipe to start with if you are a novice bread baker like me.

So expect some bread and more switch-up in the photography. The latter may be more slow coming, but it shall come.
