I’ll let you know what happens with it.
UPDATE: Wife.com is baking bread. She started while I planned music from next Sunday thru the 4th Sunday of Advent. It smells *great*
UPDATE 2: And it tasted great. We had a meal of pork loin, fettucine with home made pesto and fresh bread. What a woman I’m married to.

Did you just discover King Arthur? I’ve been baking bread with it for a few years. They just started carrying it at my local Safeway, and I got so excited that I stocked up with several sacks. It really does give you a better, more pliable dough and great crumb.
I remember you mentioning it, that’s why I bought it. Never used it before today, and the bread turned out great.
Yep. It’s well worth the extra buck or so per sack. We use Gold Medal when we can’t get KA, and it’s pretty good, too.
I like buying things by the sack. In fact, that should be an official unit of measurement:
I’d like a sack of cheese, please.
Sack of beef.
Sack of golf balls.
I buy KA flour 25 lbs at a time from Costco. I have recently started using their self-rising flour to make muffins and banana bread. You would love their new cookbook, too.
Bob’s Red Mill is another good miller – I buy polenta from them, and their rough milled oat meal is excellent.
