Twiddly Fingers

I'm plagued with Twiddly Finger Syndrome. :) My mother had it, my dad had it for a while, most of my cousins have it. Little known outside my family, TFS is a disorder characterized by an incessant need to constantly do something -- ANYTHING -- with your fingers. Sometimes this takes the form of smoking, sometimes eating, in other cases nail-biting. Having learned to channel this compulsion, I now put hooks and needles in my fingers and make things most of my family members don't need or want.

My first Homemade Breads!

I wasn't actually planning on doing a baking blog, but after doing so much baking of banana breads and bread machine breads, I took the plunge, watched a class from King Arthur flour and tried it. It really wasn't hard at all! I put off doing the kneading because I thought that was the hard part, but it was really the fun part and Little Bear did a lot of it.

There's a run on yeast at the stores right now, but when things settle down, I might end up making homemade bread like this a lot. Maybe retire the bread machine for good :)

METHOD:
Basic White Bread - made from King Arthur recipe, yields 2 loaves

AND WHAT DID WE LEARN?
Bread making is fun! And the kitchen smells wonderful while it's cooking.
