The BREAD

I've wanted to make a great bread for a very long time.  I looked for a while for a good rustic type bread and came across this youtube video .  It's a remarkably easy dough to make and the bread is unbelievably GREAT, not good.

Here's what my process looked like:

Exactly like the video says, it doesn't seem like the dough will come together at first, then seems too wet, but it comes together nicely.

Here the dough is nicely formed

This is after the 18 hours of rising.  I started the dough at about 7:00 pm on Saturday, on Sunday we went to church, came home, Justin and I went to the grocery store and by about 2:00 pm Sunday the dough was ready to be formed.  The smell at this point was MMMMMMMMmmmm!!

This is a very wet and stick dough as you can see above.

With some work, and sesame seeds on the top, here it is formed on the baking pan.

In the oven

Freshly out of the oven, DELICIOUS  smell

And here it is-- warm with melted butter-- it was unreal.  Probably the best think I've ever made and the best bread I've even eaten,  for sure.

The Turkey Dinner

Here's that turkey dinner we were talking about on the phone-- Damn you should have been here!

The stuffing- OUT OF THE BIRD,  no getting sick here!

The goofy kids were not thrilled.

I told Luke to give me that look- he had that baby hat on- very cute

They dressed up in dark clothing and played upstairs

Just some birds at the beach!

If you "right click" and click on "open in new tab" then click on the picture, they're very very big. 

This weekend I'm going to put a few videos of the Holiday too.
