Made (French medieval) peasant bread with four cups of flour and five eggs with no milk or water. Unleavened without baking powder or baking soda. Baked for an hour at 375 degrees F. That thing weighted a ton.

No wonder why loaves were good sources of protein and calories in the 14th century.

How were you able to slice it or even pull it apart? :P

Surprisingly easy.


Although not easy to chew since it's like a gum, but again the recipe says to serve with vegetable soup, buttermilk, cream gravy or a spicy roux for dipping.

Thanks, Souggy; I was thinking it'd make good sopping material. :lol:

And I ate two loaves without sopping them. :(

Wonder if they will show up on the waistline. 2,950 calories with 90g of protein per loaf. :shock:

We've come a long way since the last millennium. :laugh:

It seems it has nothing to do with the proxy or the ISP, my ISP is static it has been the same since we got the broadband - there is no reason for them to unban me, so I was able to log into my VP.

I learned that AE.com has the mowhawk trapper hat I wanted last year. I went ahead and ordered it and called it an early bday gift to myself. I will post pics when it arrives later this week.

I think Jerry Jones needs to retire and quit coming back to Danville parading his cowgrandmas and ridiculous stadiums around the bank foyer. It's really getting old and boring. I ran into him once, thought he looked like an ugly old man with a bad face lift job.

:laugh2:
 
OMG!! I just learned that hubby is kind of stupid about some things!! He came home earlier from the gas station and said he could figure out how to lock is locking gas cap. Went out, and all you got to do it turn until it clicks 3 times. I go by the feel, since when it clicks, it jumps a little. 3 jumps and it's locked up tight. What an "airhead"!!

What do you mean? I don't always understand people either so I will ask what do they mean or something similar.
 
I learned I'm in the early stages of kidney disease. :( And I have not been taking as good care of myself as I should. I'm feeling blue. The last time I saw my doctor, i thought my kidneys would clear up on my next visit but no she says it's here to stay. :(
