Oh man he's everywhere, run!

lol, small internet

Thanks for that, Endy.

I think it's broken.

My last one was 3/4  whole rye and 1/4 white spelt

I put a little oil in the mix and some poppy seeds top and bottom.

Rose quite nicely  and the oil made the crust less dry.

Have made bread every day or so for the past 40 years or so🙂

Will have to try

Yes ,with rye I think  you have to   add enough strong flour (ie make up for the missing gluten in rye) to get it to rise enough to get you a light loaf

Otherwise ,you could try a very long ,low temperature bake to give you a pure rye but very heavy loaf.

I think caraway seeds might be traditional with rye

I have only just started adding oil to the mix...makes for a different kind of a crust

Have never tried baking bread with baking powder instead of yeast but you could try that too .

More luck than caution. Car was making an unusual noise afterwards  but seems to be running fine now.

Do you live in a tropical area?

Orlando, we had a tropical storm pass through 

You must be feelin' crabby, right?

Just a claw or two.

I might look into it. Yeah, one handy thing about having worked in two different trades(carpenter and electrician) is that I'm pretty comfortable with fixing anything around my house that needs fixed, or simply updating it. Rebuilt my entire rotten porch over the summer.

Nice!  Wish I had your skillset. I can do small projects but would love to have the confidence to tackle something bigger.

Yeah, it's quite nice. Honestly, it's the little pieces of knowledge that help the most. Everything else you can look up.

So soused right now :>)

What's 0.35 mm between friends?

Was half seriously debating about rigging something up. Wouldn't have been pretty but whole lot less aggravation.

Figured out autostarting the computer, so at least accomplished something of the overall project. Still felt like a fool trying to fit a too small sized bulb though.

It's the difference between a bit fitting and not.

No, I know. A world of Precision Engineering these days.

How did you and the storm go? 

@Moontanman

Got through it okay.  Hunkered down in the closet initially until the worst of it went through. Main concerns here are trees coming down and hurricane spawned tornadoes.

Lot of flooding in the area that we're still dealing with, but none right by me.

yeah those tornados always worry me as well. 

Changed out the light bulbs in my new place. Old ones were way too harsh.

Feels cozy now

Yes, ambience is important.
