So now we’ll have a pastrami sandwich, even if it is sticking out its little green tongue at us.         10:05:59 PM    comment []

Now the sourdough is training me. I made a batch of bread dough last night using my usual instincts but, when I checked it this morning, it had risen in the bowl to a flat top – not the gracious curve I expected. That even after I had added gluten, which should have given it some extra body. Before loaving it, I kneaded in a lot more flour, but it still doubled out instead of up. Oh, it tastes great, by the way. It’s just two fragile (one loaf broke in half when I picked it up) and all that extra kneading, instead of punching down, Made for very tiny bubbles. Take it, Don Ho.   I expended nearly 40 cups of flour raising up this sourdough and, by gum, I’m gonna figure out what it takes to make great bread with it. The flavor is perfect. It just needs more body.     Update: Alternatively, I could go to Mark Preston's Blog and read how to do it and save myself a lot of trouble. Mark is an expert food preserver and a longtime cyber-buddy. His site is highly recommended!   9:16:32 PM    comment []

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,19389-1545677,00.html Prosecutors had wanted the jury to hear evidence from a group of boys known as the “Jackson seven” to bolster their case but Mr Melville said that he would not allow testimony from two of them. Now they have become the “Jackson five”, the name of the singer’s former group. = 9:23:29 AM    comment []
