      Got bored of waiting for my Levain to be ready, though I think it has started to create gas now  :), so I'm making Pitta, which requires no yeast or Levain…..Here's the dough which I will rest for a couple of hours...

        Won't be winning any prizes for these, but I'm hoping they taste OK….

          Whilst I wait for my Levain to mature, knocked up a couple of less involved loaves….

              Looks like proper Stilton - yum!

              (The bread looks amazing.)

                                  Looks like a helluva crust on that loaf, Giles.

                                  Out of curiosity, what do you do with all of the bread? Surely you and Paula aren't eating it all by yourselves, are you?

                                    Gave Alex and Kira a loaf, gave the people over the green who are self-isolating a loaf.  Two more being made as I type.  I'll be able to find people to take it off my hands….

                                      Wish I were your neighbor! Avocado season is in full swing here and every time I see these loaves I picture and can almost taste them this way

                                      Keep it up!

                                      The journey is the objective.
