I'm new, I'm hungry for bread tips

Hi everyone,

I signed up 3 minutes ago.  I used to hate cooking and baking and being in the kitchen more than 3 minutes.  I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden I'm into bread and all things bread.  The site looks friendly and comprehensive in scope.  I like the fact that Peter Reinhart's book is featured (Bread Baker's Apprentice) because I bought his book last week and devouring it.

I've baked bread about 6 times now and enjoying every minute of it.  Something about kneading dough that's therapeutic...

Welcome to a very nice place dealing with all things bread.

Wander around the cyber-halls and crannies; there's certainly plenty to read and enjoy.

Be sure to visit the blogs....loads of great info there.

I shall certainly weave my way around (or should I say knead my way around).

Thanks for taking the time to welcome me!

I've been here for a few months now and have learned a LOT. Actually, I UNlearned a lot and can now make several decent kinds of bread.

Warm bread,life is good!

Thank you for your comments.  Like you, I'm looking forward to learning a lot.  The images on this site are just gorgeous.  Makes you want to stay in the kitchen all day!
