I have been bad....no baking...no flour....and no butter...what is happening?



I am just going to be up front.  I baked so much at Christmas, used so much butter and sugar etc. that I got baked out!  I didn't think it was possible.  Yes, I have still been baking bread to have in the house but I have been avoiding any desserty type of things.  And it's more than that...I gained weight....it was like I took the pounds of butter and simply applied it to my hips, thighs...etc. And now I have been on a diet as well as exercising.  When I am on a diet, everyone in the house is...well it is only "Camera Guy" and me now.
And so I missed the last Daring Baker's Challenge - and it was a good one too.  But I will do the next one.  I promise.

I just baked a delicious chocolate bread. Club Med used to have a great Chocolate bread that everyone would rave about. But this one is BETTER... I will post about it shortly....


In the meantime, I have joined  The Bread Challenge, a group of enthusiastic amateur and professional bakers of artisan breads who have joined together to bake their way through  Jeffrey Hamelman's landmark book, Bread: A Baker's Book of Techniques and Recipes .  The challenge is open to anyone ...just go to the site to learn more and join us!      I am off to make the first bread!  YAYYYY!!!!

Stay tuned...I really am back.....

Until we bake again....

With Penny on a diet, guess who got to eat most of the chocolate bread? You guessed it - camera guy! He'll soon be on a diet as well.
