Earworms don’t like to share and due to their, ehm, cannibalistic tendencies, there is seldom more than one per ear. If this is a problem, give the shucking job to the kids — insect fascinate them.

Missouri Bread
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups water
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 5 tbsp honey, sorghum or maple syrup
- 3 ½ cups whole wheat flour
- ½ cup each of pecans
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 1 ½ tsp instant yeast
Directions
Combine all of the ingredients and mix to form a shaggy dough. Let the dough rest for 20 minutes. Flour your work surface and knead for 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and supple. Place the dough in an oiled, covered bowl overnight or for at least 1 hour.
Shape the dough into a log, and place it in a greased 8½ x 4½ inch bread pan (standard-sized). Cover the pan with a clean dishcloth or an oiled piece of plastic wrap, and let rise for about an hour, until it is about 2 inches over the edge of the pan.
Preheat the oven to 350. Bake the bread for 25 minutes uncovered then lightly tent some aluminum foil over the top for another 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, turn the bread out of the pan, and let it cool on a rack.
