every-single-day

Practice; life takes practice.

So here is my fifth batch of bread.

The holes are getting bigger. The taste is finally here. The crust is good. I didn't handle this bread much at all after the first stirring, I didn't do that foldy thing. I think my next batch will the the one. Everytime I make bread I get better at it. I learn more. It spirals and comes together.
But then, I go over to Wild Yeast blog, and I see she has made Rustic Flax Seed Current Bread. Now, for some reason, I love FLAX seeds. I don't know if it is the crunch, the taste, the omega 3's. whatever, but just say Flax seed and something in me swoons.
But I want to perfect ciabatta bread before I move on or over to another type of bread.
I wish flax seeds had never been mentioned.
A while back I got the knitting bug. But knitting felt like a diversion from my art, a true distraction. Bread making does not feel that way. I feel like I am on a mission.
I still long for correct gauge, in knitting. Loose, beautiful stitches.
I am crazy.
We just watched Life is Illuminated. I loved it.
