It was tucked away in my parents' garage, always too big for the series of small apartments we lived in for the first years of our marriage. Now I bake all of our sandwich bread and the occasional french loaf. Maybe its not as romantic, letting a machine time the rising and do the kneading, but I like the act of measuring out the ingredients, and the smell is still divine, no matter how easily it comes.Furrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08617566957749784387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225058560254819105.post-78506485852668141142008-03-24T14:42:00.000-04:002008-03-24T14:42:00.000-04:00Sometimes the most simple things can be the most a...Sometimes the most simple things can be the most amazing.

I did not. It was a little rainy, I thought maybe it wouldn't rise well. But there is something so satisfying about this most ancient of rituals - the kneading, the rising, the punching down the soft rise.It's so simple when it works, isn't it?

I wish I could have some! <BR/><BR/>I was thinking as I read the last paragraph, if only it were that easy to have a baby. It seems that we deadbabymoms followed the recipes, yet somehow someone opened the oven too soon or the measurements weren't exact enough for the loaf to rise. I don't understand why it works for some people, even those that don't follow the recipe, and than doesn't for others. It's just not fair.CLChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08030787972960755420noreply@blogger.com
