Since I was baking the beans in the oven the bread had a toasty place to rise on top of the stove yesterday :) Beans turned out great but I still prefer the larger beans. Bread, so-so. It's got great texture but it's been so long since I made bread I forgot, cooking for a family of 5 I used to double the recipe and the four loaves I baked are small, i.e "low" :( If I had made 2 or 3 loaves instead of 4 they probably would have been almost perfect. Doc, thanks for the tips :) One of the biggest problems I've had in the past is either using too cold or too hot water for the yeast. This time I wasn't taking any chances and tested the water temperature before I added the yeast - success! Ric, that cake looks delicious! LadyG beat me to it - how was it Chris? LOL Sally, I adore your kitties :) Lucky has really pretty markings but if I ever get another cat I want one that looks just like yours! Pam, Meiko, aka Kitty, is beautiful too :) |
