Hooray for Angel’s bread!
I started to thaw some dough last night. Angel noticed that it started to rise in our refrigerator when she woke up. A quick call to mom and she was finishing what I had started. She took it out, put it into bread pans, and let it rise an inch just above the top of the pans. Then came the cooking.
I came home and saw two nice loaves of bread. It was so tempting to dig in but I waited for Angel to wake up. She woke up a little later from her nap and was surprised that I hadn’t tried any. It seems that she didn’t eat any either because she was waiting for me to come home. True love …
Anyhow, I’m really happy. Angel got all the steps done pretty well. The last time she tried this was a little over two years ago and we literally had an explosion. Here is an old post that I had on my old news application.
The Dough Incident

Some people are lucky enough not to run into the cooking troubles my wife has. Some are unfortunate as well, for they miss out on the fun of discovering new and crazy scenarios that someone would not usually run into.
Tonight, I decided to make some hot chocolate before I went to sleep. On top of the microwave was a bag of bread dough. What was interesting was that the bag looked like it was full of air and foam latex was coming out of it in a large bubble. After a second take, I pieced together what had happened. Apparently, my wife and sister in-law let the bread dough set out all day. They were going to make sausage bread, but there was not enough sausage in the house. Rather then make loaves of bread with what they had, they let it set and forgot about it.
I went downstairs to the lounge to ask the girls what they were going to do with it. They ran up and laughed about it. Angel grabbed the dough with her hands and threw it away. She was worried that I was upset and it may have been expensive. I mentioned it was only expensive given our current financial situation, but that I was expecting to get some extra money the next day in my bank account.
Well, it is time to sleep.
