I'm going to try to make some tomorrow to combat the cold, rainy day. Oh, absolutely!! Love the smell of bread coming out of the oven. That's the perfect thing to do for a cold, rainy day for sure!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is cold close enough that something could pop up. But for me...its been a LOOOONG winter with a lot of tracking and nothing that happens here on out is likely to equal what already has happened plus I am VERY busy at work right now so I am just casually tracking. And I have no interest in jumping into the "winters over/not over" fight. I understand. But I truly think its done for the lowlands. Of course you guys can sneak into something well into April. Im just ready for consistenly warmer weather. As you know its been a disastrous winter for me in terms of tracking vs reality of what occurred. And as you said its unlikely anything happens that hasnt already so baseball, long walks with the pup and outdoor brewery meets please! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolsheds Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 1 minute ago, Always in Zugzwang said: Definitely agree with this. I ran track a looooong time ago in high school and we always had a warmup/cool down during practices. I did sprints, 100m, 200m 400m relay. I still ended up suffering a pulled hip-pointer muscle one time (it went out on me while running the 100m dash during a meet!) that killed the rest of that season for me. Really sucked, especially since I was scheduled for 2 other events that day and I had to be scratched from those. It was all I could do to hobble/walk for awhile, even had to use crutches to some extent. Strangely, it didn't bother me again in my final 2 years after that, thank goodness. But shin splints...that was a never-ending battle! They had a shin splint board in the locker room that you were meant to stand on for some length of time (the board was elevated at about a 45 degree angle), to strengthen it. And at home I'd have to occasionally lift a weight tied to my foot with my ankle (used one of those old cast irons, weight like 8 pounds!). That helped a lot. Shin splints were the bane of my existence 10th - 12th grade. All three seasons...Soccer Basketball and Track were helped out by a ton of Motrin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crust looks really nice too. Good job. Thanks! Yeah, the wheat never seems to rise as high as the regular sourdough. I'm thinking that is just the nature of the wheat bread, more dense. Attached is the side view of the cut regular sourdough. The one on the right appears to have risen higher due to the scoring technique I used on that one. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got a 4-pack of that. Well, now it’s a 3 pack. By the way, I like that Ten Eyck uses cardboard 4 pack holders instead of the normal plastic. Ideally, everyone should return their plastic four pack holders to the brewery like the customers do up at @jonjon’s brewery in Davis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what's going on with Dr. Seuss but Hasbro got into a PR pickle by saying the Mr. Potato Head brand is going to be renamed as Potato Head and after public outcry had to clarify that Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head will still have those names but it is the brand name that is going to change from Mr. Potato Head to Potato Head.
