I discovered yesterday that Double Cream, Relentless Energy Shots and Chicken Super Noodles don't go very well together.
Crab Battle
noun
Words uttered to incite an all in brawl. Whoever says the words 'Crab Battle' will usually be spear tackled to the ground by anyone else present, and all parties will then engage in a fight to the death.
Reality untouchable, transparent, invisible to our fixed, restricted fields of vision. Existence taken for granted, absolute. Possessed, owned, controlled by the common sense-infected rational gaze, onward forever we walk among the ignorant. Never stray from the common lines.

Re: Bachelor breadbaking!
"Years ago, I mean decades ago, I read a quote about politicians performing quid pro quo favors for campaign cash, and whether or not we could prove it. The guy who was quoted opined that it was difficult to determine. He noted that in many cases, the payoff might not take the form of votes on legislative action -- those might be detectable, and so are avoided -- but could take subtler forms, like the question that is never asked at a hearing.
The media's doing a terrific job of not asking questions it doesn't want to know the answer to. It doesn't ask these questions in bulk, and the great volume of questions it doesn't ask makes it cheap to not ask questions.
And it passes these savings on to you, the customer." Ace

Re: Bachelor breadbaking!
Houston, we have a problem.
Notes to self:
1. Do not close windows abruptly behind rising bread pans.
2. Do not drop bread pan onto floor.
On advice, I've rekneaded them into a single loaf and am going to let them try to rise again until midnight. At that point, it's going into the oven, no matter what it looks like.
Should be educational, even if it's not edible.

Nah, just means you're not ready to graduate to quiche.

If it won't rise consider wheat crackers instead.

Re: Bachelor breadbaking!
True fact: the only decent quiche ever made in my home was by an honest-to-god gay ballet-dancer.
It didn't really rise, and then again, it didn't really fail to rise. What we have here is a half-rearisen loaf. I turned the temperature down to about 325 and baked it for about an hour.If it won't rise consider wheat crackers instead.

It's incredibly dense, the color and flavor is closer to a rye bread, but the texture is much smoother. Despite all the angst, it turned out to be a very tasty loaf, though I'm not likely to try repeating the process that got me there. I'm pretty sure there's an easier way.
I'm giving real consideration to trying this again tomorrow.There is no lao tzu.

That looks kinda like a pumpernickel. Not bad at all.

Re: Bachelor breadbaking!
This is another go at "very wheat and walnut," this time without the side trip into dropping windows and pans. I'm not going to open it up until tomorrow, but here's what it looks like fresh out of the oven.
