Milkmaid's Recipe Box: Goof Up

Milkmaid's Recipe Box

FOOD, FOOD, FOOD! I'm such a FARMER at heart-- even a CALF knows that so much in life is about the FOOD! (A bit of a "bio" about me can be found way down near the bottom.)

You can find a recipe index entitled "Labels" down along the right side, starting below the picture of the farm. Then, below the "Label" list are pictures of some of my old "standbys"-- click on their picture and it should take you to the recipe.

You will see no advertising on my blog; this means there is no monetary benefit for me having "visitors" or "joiners"-- having said that, if you do wish to JOIN my blog, you can do so by scrolling w-a-y down to near the bottom of the page...

Oh-h-h-h-h-h-h, ...NUTZ!

At the beginning of the bread making process, I do this:

Put some warm water in a bowl or kettle.
Sprinkle the yeast in it.
Add about a teaspoon of sugar to help the yeast get all 'happy'.
Watch for the mixture to get a bit frothy (bubbly), then proceed.

Recently, I did #1, #2, and #3. Then, I sort of skipped #4 because I got busy with something else for a while. This is what happens when you skip #4:

Drum Roll (I mean, DUMB Roll!)...

All............... better!

As in track talk, it was now time to return to the blocks and start over!

P.S. I am happy to say this is the first time this has happened to me, and I'm happy that I could laugh at myself. Still, step #4 should NOT be skipped!
