Election thoughts

One thing is for sure, we will need sustenance to get through this. Maybe time to make a bowl of these spiced nuts….

…any other ideas for election night comfort food out there?   I am not baking bread until I know who has won… Might just spend the night on Hornby Island instead. Celia and I met up there late last night.  Thanks Celia!  The surprising places you find your friends :)

Miche Pointe-à-Callière – Lost in Translation?

I am so happy to be baking with the Mellow Bakers!  Here we are starting on our May breads.  There is always some brave person making the bread first, and you can hang back and say, hmm,  that’s interesting, I see what happened there,….or if you feel like trail blazing, that’s OK too. It’s a grand way to bake. Thank you my friends out there!

A miche is a big bread – an oven hogging, flowing monster of a bread. I know the sort.   I have made one of Mick of Bethesdabakers miches and they are most definitely for sharing! I made a 900 gram mini version of this formula this time as B is not keen on strong sour flavoured whole wheat breads and I would be on my own eating this one.
