      Traditional gender roles are for chumps. Also: just because I don’t post pics don’t mean I’m not cookin’ [emoji6]

        …it cracks me up sometimes that it's all the guy's here baking and cooking! 😃 Renaissance men! 🙂

        Modern women like to say "get you a man who can do both". I cook, I do the laundry, I make bread, I raise the kids, I change tires, I shovel snow, I build shit, I fix shit, I drink, I swear, I fart. I like it that way personally. I don't use skin cream though, just to be clear.

        I use some eye cream from time to time…  😶 😶 :-X. especially after those one or two beers too much nights 😉 Baking and cooking is fun... why should we leave that to women?  😃

        God has blessed you richly, so get down on your knees and thank him. Don’t forget the less fortunate or God will personally kick your ass. I’d love to do it for him, but I can’t be everywhere. Willie Nelson

            I have a problem with creams. Hate them. Hate using sun screen although I do, obviously.

                          Overnight country brown… my favourite at the moment.

                          About to load up a slice with some boiled eggs and smoked salmon roe...

                                …it seems to be my role in the Universe, to stir the pot so to speak. 😃

                                ...Dad was born in 1935 so, but his mother ( Grandma ) was a seamstress at the St.Paul Hotel and the first female union steward. That was back in the day when there was nothing but the traditional roles. 🙂

                                ...have made my living in the food and liquor industry for the past 40 years. Married for 30, divorced for the last 5 ( and my ex is a great cook!) So man am I cooking! 😃

                                ...Giles, neph93 and Chap have given me another way to use my Le Creuset Dutch Oven and absolutely inspired me to give baking bread a shot but nothing that compares to what I see on this thread, incredible!

                                ...here's proof that there's plenty of room for me to up my game. 😉 😃 Stripped bear for all to see! ???

                                        I did a warm spot white levain yesterday too and the crumb is a joy to behold. Definitely not going back to the steel apart from when I bake pizza or fancy learning the pretty pattern thing.

                                          Decided to try out a Ciabatta for the first time.  The Poolish is brewing at the moment.

                                          Fun fact.  Ciabatta was invented in 1982 by an Italian baker who was pissed off by the ubiquity of the French Baguette and his country's increasing reliance on it  (which in itself, was not invented until 1920)….

                                            Looking forward to seeing that… Got a polish on myself. We're on "red level" here so most teaching is digital and everything else is closed. Knocking off a dough every other day!
