Back to Blogging and Bread Making
I think the blog is more or less working - feedback is welcome, particularly since I've no idea how it looks on anything but our own PCs.
Tom's bread making (this is still the wonderful New York Time's bread recipe) is interesting because it shows dramatically the difference between the two 5-quart iron dutch ovens we have. One is 10" and the other 9". The 9" one makes a much nicer loaf.
The loaf on the left is made in our new 9" dutch oven from Maca. The one on the right is made in the more commonly found 10" oven.
Tom's been making 4 loaves each weekend (two at a time) so I've ordered him a second Maca.
Jerry arrives this evening for a short visit. We are serving oysters on the half shell for starters, subliminal scallops , green salad with asparagus, and ice cream with our chocolate sauce. Monday morning is crepes. Monday dinner is artichoke squares, roast beef with Yorkshire pudding, green peas, and pie.
We have light snow this morning that is just barely sticking. Nevertheless, all the chickens are standing in their coop pouting and glaring because they won't set food on snow.
INtersting that you have had blogging problems. I haven't had any trouble
with mine.
That is because your blog is much newer than mine and, I think, was created
with all their new software. Mine was made under the old system and
everything has to be changed over by 1 April or else it quits. So I'm
changing over.
yeah, I am now caught in the same problem. Since I was having computer
problems I hadn't looked at my blogcity mail.
I have a new computer now... I might call you tomorrow to find out what you
have done. I can't figure out how to get my bookmarks back.
Oh, I think I mostly have it figured out now....
I’m in the process of doing some massive ring maintenance for the FiberArts
Bloggers ring and I am contacting you because there’s a problem you may
have noticed with your code. I will go ahead and e-mail you the basic ring
code now, but if you don’t get it please let me know.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions/concerns. Once you have
your code up, if you want to send me a note I’d appreciate it, so I can
check it out. Thanks!

I like your new format very much. In your old format the Upisland Eggs
banner was so big on my computer that I had to scroll down to see your
current post. I'm kind of lazy, I like to see the post right up front so I
can see if it's new. The bread looks wonderful, I'm glad to see that Tom is
recovering. Best of luck with bread, chickens and health.
