Bread heaven

I have been looking for an excuse to re-invigorate my feeble blogging efforts... and it took a lesson in sour dough bread-making from a fellow smallholder, and a successful second attempt at baking it!

I am very excited about the look, smell and taste of my sour dough bread. See for yourself:


And if only, dear reader, you could taste...it is as good as any sour dough I have ever bought - Irrewarra, Red Beard, La Madre - I've tried them all. And it's so easy to do! Thanks to my friend Sara, I am now a bread-making convert...

    Your feeble blogging efforts are amply redeemed with your phenomenal baking efforts. Although in the second paragraph you seemed to be channeling Charlotte Brontë.
