Breadmakers

[Tuckervill]

Can't you just ASK him to clean up after himself? Have you ever asked him to do the dishes? Did he just flat out refuse, or what? Do you make it hard for him to help out in the kitchen by having impossible expectations?

What chores does he do that he might say the same about you?

(My husband can't say that about me at all. He usually puts the trash on the curb, but if he misses it, I do it. He does dishes without being asked, but I usually do it anyway. I mow the lawn, but he does it if I can't get to it. I never run the weed whacker because it's gas and huge and makes my shoulder hurt and we're not going to starve if nobody does it for a month.)

I'd say just ask him to clean up after himself. If he refuses, you've got bigger problems than just a breadmaker.

Your absolutely right, I should just ask him, would save a potential argument.

I guess my thing is that sometimes he has no common sense. If you make a mess you clean it up.

No use making a mountain out of a molehill. I love my husband dearly and wouldn't trade him for the world. I think I'm the problem here.

WOOHOO!!!

Don't have the book but I got the jist of it. Modified one of my bread recipe and this is what came out. Yes one did not last for the picture. Will be adjusting the recipe just slightly and change the temperature profile.
Also plan on removing the pan of water after about 20 minutes instead of leaving it in.

To get the nice crust, I needed the steam injector in my oven but the one I have right now doesn't have it. So I've been trying all sorts of things and all failed miserably. Never occured to me about a pan of water underneath. Worked like a charm.

Wow tasted GREAT!!

now I need some brie or some baby swiss... glass of wine...

Beautiful!

A big slab of farm butter would do the trick.

I've been wanting a baguette pan like that for a loooong time.
