Guys. GUISE.

I have been baking bread almost every single day. Every baking is two loaves. This should tell you how much my family eats. I can now make sourdough bread in my sleep. SPEAKING OF, HOW IS EVERYONE'S STARTER DOING? Mine is so delicious smelling, I can't even. Mm, bread. I'm pretty sure that I could give that whole "man cannot live by bread

I"m about ready to start keeping my starter in the fridge. This weekend's big adventure is Cinnamon Rolls from 'scrap'. I live alone, after all, but my folks and brother all live at the same address and they get a lot of my stuff. My problem is the darn crust. I haven't baked a loaf of bread yet that didn't have a HUGE, THICK crust. Inside, it's to die for.

MMMM!! I love cinnamon rolls, and great minds think alike, because I'm planning on making some, too!

(You know, they freeze beautifully! After you make the roll and cut the individual rolls, freeze those before letting them rise. Then, you can pull out one or two in the morning to thaw and rise, then bake them off and have a roll for breakfast!)

Have you tried tossing a few ice cubes in the oven when you pop the loaves in? That steam helps the bread rise even more, giving you a thinner, crisper crust?

mmm...

My Dad loves cinnamon rolls and has been lobbying for me to make some. He just turned 87, I guess I can accede to those wishes.

Yes, yes! What a good daughter you are. :)
