Yay Bread!

I finally got off my butt and baked some bread! Probably the first time in at least 5 years.

Kneading has that fun-and-novel feeling again!

Lets see how long that lasts.

I used the recipe I found on Girlichef's website. I loved the fact that it gave me an excuse to buy my favorite beer. :) For convenience, I substituted bread flour in place of the all-purpose flour, the gluten, and the wheat germ. It was easy enough to grind the oats using a regular blender.





Some more flour and 15 minutes of aerobic kneading (why isn't this an Olympic event?) later:



Don't you just love when you try something new and it ends up looking like the picture on the box/website?



I'm pretty happy right now! :D
