I followed a link and found myself a new hobby.  That was easy, huh?

I have *always* wanted to be a bread baker.  Unfortunately it requires a tiny bit of measuring accuracy that escapes me.  I prefer splash and dash, rather than a leveled measure.  Well, it turns out, someone else does too and they were kind enough to write a book for a kitchen hack, just like yours truly.

The book is Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day and the idea is pure genius.  Put a big pot of dough in the fridge and take out what you need each day then bake it.  Fool proof.

So I've been making bread for just 2 days and I can already see that after I achieve mastery on the technique, I'll have to alter the ingredients to our tastes and waistbands. lol. 

So, here's a link to the basic recipe and instructions.  Of course the book will have a great deal more but that should at least get you going if you're interested at all.
