For a minute I considered opening a boulangerie
January 24, 2010
You guys are awesome! There are so many great snack ideas in the comments on the last post. If you are looking for instant ideas, go check them out. If not, I'll put them all together and make some sort of reference sheet for downloading. Give me a few days or a week and I'll post it here for you all to download.
This isn't the best photo, but it gives a good indication of my weekend. Bread. And then more bread. Surprisingly, I have quite a bit to say about it, but I want to try one more thing first. Monday is going to be crazy, so hopefully I'll be back mid-week with my baking successes and failures.
And between batches of bread, I sewed something. It's cute. Photo shoot tomorrow and then I'll dish. Hope your week is off to a good start.
actually, this is the best photo. i know there were bagels involved this weekend... and are those...pretzels? can't wait for the short-list of recipes/ideas. goodnight, erin!

Erin, all I can say is that your weekend sounds like my kind of weekend. I will enjoy reading what you deduce from your experiments. xo

Awesome! You have been quite the inspiration.
I have a big bowl of dough in my freezer. I'm going to try pita this morning.

Your "not the best photo" made me want to hop right off my stool and commence to making those pretzels sprinkled with salt.
I bet your house smelled heavenly.

I'm hoping you will be sharing the pretzel recipe soon. I've tried two different ones, and haven't loved one yet. Yours look perfect!

yum! I just got the /Artisan Bread in 5/ book but haven't made it happen yet, so I'll be eager to read your tips and tricks after working with the "healthy" version.

i'm starting to bake homemade bread again after a long hiatus. i'm experimenting with white whole wheat vs. whole wheat pastry flour as well as oat, brown rice, spelt, and coconut flours.
can't wait to hear your results!!

My life is also full of breads... everyday! I own a bakery café with my baker boyfriend. Your breads look good!
And... I think the opening of a bakery takes more than a minute thinking! Hahaha!
