I enjoyed reading these two cookbooks for #LMPBC

The La Brea Bakery book was way too much for me to attempt, but I enjoyed cooking from Beard on Bread.

I will get these packed up and mailed this week!

mabell I‘m so glad you enjoyed Beard on Bread! I marked quite a few recipes I‘d like to try. Due to the time spent on my failed sourdough 🙄, I couldn‘t fit in many before I sent it on, but I flagged the pages in my old copy so I can get to them whenever. And this reminds me, I never posted my review on this one! 1y
Maria514626 I‘m looking forward to experimenting! 1y

1. ❤️ roasted poultry. Let‘s hope the brine makes this year‘s as good as last!

2. Pumpkin pie 🥧

3. Fresh buttery rolls

I used to make bread a lot, but lately the size of my kitchen has limited me to special occasions so I'm really looking forward to #3! As for next year, we may have bought a house, so we'll have to see what happens!

Hope everyone has as exciting (in a fun way) thxgiving 😁

"Good bread is the most fundamentally satisfying of all foods; and good bread with fresh butter, the greatest of feasts." ???

For #90sInJuly, I'm confessing I #Wannabe a bread maker! I buy bread cookbooks at book sales, religiously add bread making pins to my Pinterest board, and follow a few IG accounts devoted to bread making. And yet am still too intimidated to make a loaf. I keep thinking I need more education!

LibrarianJen My cousin is a chef/baker at a local panaderia (bread store). He makes delicious bread and is probably the only person I know who actually looks forward to going to work at 3 in the morning! 7y

Cinfhen That's awesome 😍just go for it! I'm sure you'll be a terrific bread maker 😉 7y
Smarkies Start off with something basic first. Once you understand how dough works you will be intrigued. 😁 7y
mjdowens It really is a lot of fun! Just jump in and try a small loaf 7y
readinginthedark You could start with a non-yeast bread! I really struggle with a successful dough rise, but a basic sweet loaf? So easy! 7y
Jess_Read_This @Leftcoastzen @Cinfhen Awww! ❤️Thanks for the vote of confidence! 🍞 7y
Jess_Read_This @LibrarianJen Omigosh! How neat! Did he always want to be a baker? 7y
Jess_Read_This @readinginthedark @Smarkies Good tips! I think I was feeling intimidated reading the sourdough and milk bread recipes. It's probably best to keep it simple! 7y
Jess_Read_This @mjdowens Thanks for the encouragement!!! ❤️ 7y
LibrarianJen @Jess_Read_This Yes actually! We used to check out cookbooks from the children's section at the library all the time and made quite a fun mess in the kitchen. He veered more towards baking while I liked cooking better. 7y
Jess_Read_This @LibrarianJen I love that!! I'd love to see pics of his bread! I'm always looking for inspiration!💕 7y
LibrarianJen You can! Here's the bakery's website and if you go to their Facebook page you'll see tons of deliciousness. Look for pictures around November you'll see their famous turkey shaped bread! It's mostly my cousins boss and son in all the pics/videos. http://goldencrown.biz/wp/ 7y
Jess_Read_This @LibrarianJen Wow! He is so talented! I just followed the bakery on FB and can't wait for all the bread pics! 7y

I'm sorry but I keep picturing a big hipster beard brushing against food and it makes me dry heave

LeahBergen I instantly thought the same thing!! Or a beard hair kitchen brush to dab on olive oil. 🤢 7y
BethFishReads I read this a million years ago and in all the years I read Beard, I never made that connection. Now I can't I think it 😳 7y

@Amyegia and I just set up some of our fav cookbooks on top of the fridge using these sweet new grisly bookends. (Yes, that is a signed note from Barack and Michelle, congratulating us on our wedding. Jealous?)
