There Is A Crack In Everything.Thats How The Light Gets In.

There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.

The fall of the Berlin Wall

“I wish it need not happened in my time,” said Frodo. “So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.”

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

I don’t think there’s any quote more suitable for today (9 November 2016)

“I’m inspired by the love people have for their children. And I’m inspired by my own children, how full they make my heart. They make me want to work to make the world a little bit better. And they make me want to be a better man.” - President Barack Obama

CPSS back again, and what's your favorite thing to bake? what are you best at baking?? Are those different things??? I'm asking the hard hitting questions here

you continue to bring delight and joy into my inbox. uhh probably proudest of baking croissants. I make bad-ass croissants. They take 3 days. (They’re the ones in my profile pic.) On an everyday basis, probably best at baking bread, like artisan French-style crusty bread? I make it with sourdough culture, but the only bread I’m not that good at making with sourdough culture is sourdough itself. Irony! 

Oh oh oh, this one’s my favorite, but not that many people in my life enjoy it, so I don’t get to make it that often. I put golden raisins in it: https://flourishen.blogspot.com/2015/12/carrot-and-walnut-levain-bread.html

And now you know far more than you probably wanted to about my baking habits!!
