"this bread will help cure whatever is pissing you the hell off"

hahahahaha! that had me falling out of my chair. seriously, baking and cooking is my way to unwind. my family knows to leave me the hell alone after a bad day if i'm tromping around the kitchen.
after about an hour? voila, a beautiful meal has been created, and mom is happy.
the end.

ps - that bread sounds lovely. will try that on my next bad day. :)

I foresee a bread making day in the near future? I want that yeasty smell in my kitchen, but I've never attempted it!

Also, read My Life in France (Julia Child) while I was in Mexico and this reminds me of the chapters where she discusses the trials and tribulations of developing a French Bread recipe that could easily be made in the American kitchen (asbestos tile, what!?). Fascinating book - you would heart it.

Well, you got *me* convinced! I gotta make bread soon! (But, I'm not chasing any deadlines or stressed out- I just like the euphoria, heh.) Love the molasses-y flavor, so much that think I'll actually use robust!

Wow! The bread looks reeeaaallly good! You should have brought some to class. Or better yet, you should have brought the dough so we could kneed it during class. Looks like you need a vacation, though. Don't work too hard!

I think I need to punch some bread as well. All this waking up early and falling asleep before anyone my age has any right to is killing me.

I've also never punched bread. This looks like a joy I need to take part in...

Hi Garrett, I just stumbled on your blog and after reading this post, I'm a fan of your writing. Agree with you about the therapeutic effects of kneading bread and you've captured the thought processes perfectly.

This sounds like a much healthier catharsis than making and eating about a cup of caramel sauce. not that i did that last night.

Love how you work life out as you kneed the bread!...

Love how you work life out as you kneed the bread! I enjoy reading how you process and relax while cooking. Kneading bread isn't high on my priority list so I take the easy way to enjoy fresh bread. My process time is sitting looking at nothing and enjoying the morning sun with a cup of tea and my journal. Thanks for sharing.. your life and your recipes!

Such an awesome. It does help to make your own bread. It's therapeutic and relaxing. It's actually amazing how you find the time to do some work in the kitchen, work and study at the same time. There's always a way to make it happen when you love what you do.
