No, the book I want, I want a new copy because an old one will be too used and I think I want my son to make his own mess not take on someone else's. The food at Tassajara is fantastic. If the book is out of print you can find out by going to the library. You can find out the publisher's address. And that still leaves us one on the shelf for someone else.
Life is magic when it includes baking bread.
I cannot imagine that using a bread-making machine has the same impact. There is a place for bread machines, don't get me wrong, but if you don't spend the day making bread then really it becomes nothing more than food. Bread is life. Life is magic. Bread is magic.
