Need a Hand?

DIBS, I don’t bake, I cook, but my wife bakes.
Ultimately to bake bread you have to be consistent, and you need to feel the subtle differences in consistency of the dough induced by humidity, differences in the flour, and so on.
Sometimes people try and take short cuts in sifting, not you, right? And shortcuts in general, they don’t work in baking. Cooking you can get away with a lot more than baking.
And I definitely second the recipe that Tina suggested!
“I may have added too much flower at the end and handled it improperly.”
Last but not least, in accordance with what I said about getting it right, before attempting the gay version, get the straight version down pat! Improper handling indeed!
I agree with denton. I would take on a bunch of DIY projects but sanding floors would not be one of them.
You’re welcome Snappy :o).
Rob, I wouldn’t try it (sanding). Normally you need at least two sanders, one for the center of the floor, one for the edging. It definitely requires some skill, multiple grades of sandpaper, and then several coats of poly. You’ll have to get all the furniture out of the room for several days. And finally, when you screw it all up, it may be that your landlord won’t take kindly to it.
Honestly, If I was gonna try a room, I’d pick up a used 3″ or even 4″ belt sander off ebay and use that. Less likely to do damage, and you’ll definitely get some exercise.
ROFL Ken!
2 p.m. and on my lunchtime walk the sun feels like it’s noontime…I guzzled four glasses of water from the water cooler, the security guard was staring at me in disbelief.
Oh and the said Latina CANNOT be a playing for my team! Spending an evening hitting on ONE was enough :o).
Kens…my niece just got the new Dora doll. She loves it! Thank you sooooo much. I’ll let you out of the corner for this 🙂
Etson, join the corner crew!
