battle against the bread
today i waged war. no, not against the family of lizards invading my house.. not against the huge pile of papers still lying on my table (much as my parents would love for that to happen), but against a lump of dough.. it all started with a breadmaker my mum bought some three years ago which has been sitting in a corner gathering dust.. the instructions are very simple. dump the required ingredients in, press the correct buttons, and voila! nice new bread. but then, the thing is, we couldnt even take out the baking tray thing, a bit hard to explain but there was something obviously wrong.. remember tbis name and dont ever buy stuff with this name: Giabo. Giabo Giabo Giabo. there, should be somewhat in your brain now.. well its in mine.. so we decided that we would just bake bread the good old fashioned way.. it started out as rather fun.. but then the instructions seemed to get longer and looooongerrr. like how i didnt realise that i have to do some stuff then wait for an hour, do some more stuff and wait for another hour.. i tell you, i will never look upon the humble loaf the same way again.. you can feel the warmth when youre kneading the dough.. and imagine all the yeast respiring anaerobically.. i think thats pretty darn cool. not to mention kinda gross-feeling, when you actually stop to think about it.. anyways, now its all done and i have two lovely loaves of bread just screaming: eat me! eat me! well, they look like bread.. they smell like bread.. but i guess the real test will come tomorrow morning come breakfast time.. i hope none of us die of food poisoning though.. that would mean the end of my bread making days. youve done cookies, youve done brownies, but have you done bread? hahaha.. i actually wanted to upload pics of the bread but then i realised that i didnt know how to. bleh :(
