    Rise and shine Kondo mates!

    Good morning everyone

    My fridge arrives today yeah!
    I dumped the original company
    That let me down last week
    I ordered one on line last night and it comes today

    For those who have breadmakers that have bit
    The dust. I found this charming mans method on y toob
    It's a no knead bread loaf baked in a regular bread pan.

    I've tried no knead bread before and although I liked it
    It seemed such a bind.

    This looks really easy.
    My own regular loaf method is fast
    and everyone loves my bread.

    However. I would like to give this a shot.
    If anyone can tell me what 3 and 1/2 American cups
    of flour is in grams.
    Sorry I know this is off topic
    But if it saves anyone buying a bulky space gussling BM.:money:

    Edit this is an even quicker method
    When he says hot tap water I think he means tepid
    Otherwise you will kill the yeast
    I add a teaspoon of sugar as well to my flour it gives the yeast
    Something to munch on

    Oh let me know how it turns out
    I haven't time today but will try tomorrow.
    He certainly makes it look easy

    It's a bigger 'crumb' than my regular close crumb loaf bread
    But if it saves me poor owld arms from kneading it good

  • Love that link, I like Christmas as a chance to decorate, see friends, spend time with family etc but I hate the 'buy, buy' pressure and this year's JL ad has really cheesed me off. I volunteer with a charity that takes elderly people out to tea once a month and I know that a lonely old person would rather have half an hour of your time than a present and a wave.

    I'll get off my soapbox ... I had a belated birthday present yesterday from a friend. She knows I love sewing. She bought a box of sewing machine bobbins and then wound ten of them with different colour threads. It's one of the most thoughtful and useful presents I've ever had and I am thrilled with it.
    Life is mainly froth and bubble: two things stand like stone. Kindness in another’s trouble, courage in your own.

    Polly I think you are perfectly correct, aware of the effects but not letting them control you is the solution.

    M-M thank you, don't worry about me too much. I'm pretty well in control of it now :)

    Hugs, dragonette,

    My bread maker will not be replaced, in the short term at least

    I will keep opening the cupboard to admire the space...:D

    That's brilliant
    If this was the Brownies you would be awarded the kondo badge
    I wish they would teach something like this to older children in school
    I see young ladies going to high school with books in designer handbags the Michael K ones and not fake either.
    Nursery children tidy up after play. Well they used to when my were there years ago.
