Baked


 I also make bread sometimes.

I’ve been trying to figure out an easy and quick recipe. Most bread recipes online read like scientific journal entries and make things super complicated. Maybe that’s what you need if you’re trying to win best in show but I just want bread.


My recipe was a bit janky but here it is as a reminder to myself:

520g of flour - mostly bread flour with some whole grain and rye. Eyeballed in true peasant style. 

438g water cuz some recipe said so. 

10g salt

70g vivrant starter


Method:

Mix water and starter together / mix in dry stuff / let sit for 30 / 3-4x stretch and folds every 30 mins / (here’s where things get backwards) / pour dough out, pre shape stand for 20, shape and put in an oiled loaf tin. Let stand/rise/proof for 10-12 hours at room temp. preheat oven at 50 and bake that shit at 470-450 degs for 20 mins each. Pull out of tin and bake for 3 mins each side to brown the crust. 


Result : dank bread

Findings: might need to shape after the rise to get a solid skin. Had fat bubbles on mine. 


Edit 1/20/21: Joe Biden’s president and I made cookies last night.

Res-erection: half chub

The fin is on!  I’ve been working on the board intermittently over the last couple of weeks. I was putting off getting to the fin but I bit the bullet and put it on yesterday as I’m pretty much just down to the last hot coat application on the dings.  My personal assessment: not the best looking fin repair but it’ll work! I had had to patch some glass on the fin when it was off the board but I didn’t clean it up super well. I figured that any exposed weave would just get soaked when I glassed it on to the board but there’s a fair amount of dusty looking parts.  That being said, only I will notice. And the board looks like it’s been through hell anyway so not a huge problem if the fin has a weird look too.  My only serious concern is whether I have enough glass to keep it on when I’m riding. I applied fin rope - prob about 25-30 strange of 6oz - and two full pieces of 6oz cloth on either side with a proper amount of tail to glass to the board. The fin ain’t going anyw...

Climb Time: Vegas is Hell

Image
Work's been mental so lording has been slow but I managed to get some time off and finagled a trip to Red Rock in Nevada. I've been struggling with the mental aspects of climbing lately so I planned a very mellow itinerary that featured long routes but 0 stress to remind myself a) that I actually do like climbing and b) WHY I like it.  Our 'menu' was Birdland 5.7+ and Solar Slab 5.6, two classic trade routes that usually guarantee a conga line. With little ambition to push the limits, Trevor and I were down to wait around if we needed to and just have a nice relaxing adventure in the sun.  So we headed out towards Vegas on Thursday night after I wrapped work and got as far as Primm, NV.  Not much to say about Primm other than: "bleak". It used to be known as State Line, was established around a gas station - since replaced by cardboard casinos - and exists solely to cater to gamblers, jonesing so hard for a game that they can't wait to get to Vegas which i...
