By contrast, some awesome things

  1. This bread is great. I am a fan of the Artisan-Bread-in-5 breads in general but this one has been a whole new level of great. Every day I have got up thinking "yay breakfast, I can eat more of that bread". I included pumpkin and sesame seeds in the dough, and more salt - 1.5 US Tb, in line with the quantity that was usual in their previous books - because their healthiness agenda in this new book includes reducing salt, and mine doesn't (ha). Also the final 1/4 cup of flour was rye because I ran out of wholemeal.
    • NB #1 This time I finally made the effort to convert US cup measures to their exact Australian equivalents, instead of just going "bah, the difference'll come out in the wash". Maybe this is why it's so good?
    • NB #2 "Vital wheat gluten" is sold in Australia (and I think Canada) as "Gluten Flour" and I found it in my local health food shop.
  2.  
    lamardeuse has conveniently written a post that replicates my opinions of Scott and Bailey exactly.  Executive summary: I love Scott and Bailey. It is so good I don't really feel like I need fanfic.
  3. It turns out Wish It Would Rain Down (The Night Before the Morning After Remix) (remix of my Sploosh) was written by
    kanata / kyuuketsukirui :D
