Day #19 – June 26, 2010
“These and the following recipes are good for the maidless hostess who has no toaster.”
The Joy of Cooking, 1943
The beauty of this project, for me, is that I get to learn about all the wonderful parts of the 1950’s while enjoying the ease of 2010. Today was that kind of day for me. I would call it, “1950’s…ish.” It had all the charm and beauty of an earlier time along with the effortlessness of today.
Clay and I are enjoying the company of longtime friends, Chad and Carey, and they are living in one of the coziest towns I have ever seen. Winter Park, Florida is full of local flavor and they were kind enough to share it all with us today.
This is how we combined the fiftys with our generation…
- First, Carey prepared a beautiful breakfast (1950’s behavior)…with Pillsbury dough (2010 convenience). Scroll down to find her recipe for a Blueberry Braided Loaf.
- Then, I read her girls a retro Golden Book Collection Storybook (first published in 1948); then the girls watched Max and Ruby on DVR (2010 entertainment).
- As always, I dressed in a skirt and pearls (1950’s clothing), but I could not find a matching cardigan, so I went sleeveless (2010 comfort).
- Clay and I walked 30 minutes to the center of town with Chad and Carey and their two girls (1950’s activity); Chad pushed the Mighty Bob Stroller the entire way (2010 products).
- We enjoyed the charm of locally owned eateries and shops in downtown Winter Park (1950’s appeal). But we also checked out Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn while we were there (2010 megastores).
- Clay and I bought fresh dried fruit at the farmers market (1950’s flavor); We also sent a few text messages as we walked past the locally grown honey booth and the fresh flower vendors (2010 technology).
Carey’s Blueberry Cream-Cheese Braided Loaf
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 large egg, separated
1 1/4 cups confectioner sugar, divided
1 (11 oz) can refrigerated breadstick dough
3/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (use almost a cup)
2 tsp. water
2.5 tbsp orange juice
Preheat oven to 375*. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
Beat cream cheese in a mixing bowl at med. speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg yolk and 1/4 cup confectioner sugar. Beat until well mixed. Set aside.
Remove breadstick dough from can. Unroll and separate dough into rectangle. Place dough horizontally on baking sheet. Press seams together to seal.
Spoon cream cheese mixture onto center third of dough.
Wash, drain, and dry blueberries. Sprinkle blueberries over cream cheese mixture.
Separate dough at perforations up to cream-cheese mixture slightly stretching dough strips. Beginning at top edge of dough, braid strips to cover filling (this makes more sense as you are doing it). Tuck last 2 ends under at bottom of loaf.
In a small bowl, beat egg white and water with fork until blended to form an egg wash. Brush egg wash over braided loaf.
Bake until golden brown, approx. 20 minutes. Cool for at least 45 min. or as long as you can stand it.
In another small bowl, combine remaining 1 cup confectioners sugar and orange juice, whisking until smooth. Drizzle glaze over braided loaf before serving. Slice with bread knife.
