Spam in the bread browser

Floyd,

It seams someone figured out how to use the personal blogs feature of your site to propagate spam with pictures that are making it into the bread browser. I first noticed it a few minutes ago, when I saw a picture of Selena Gomez selling insurance. I really don't think she authorised such use of her likeness, and I hope you will find a way to stop this before it grows. Once spammers find out you've made it easy for them, they all come crawling around and they are hard to get rid of at that point.

British Summertime Themed Dinner Party

I'm throwing a dinner party on Monday for us and a couple of good friends. It'll be a semi formal occasion and I usually cook about 10 courses of stupidly over-complicated and gourmet veggie food. I also tend to leave it until the last minute to plan my menu. I must enjoy pressure I guess haha. I was just trying to find some inspiration and ideas that went along with the theme and I know a lot of you baking-types are also into cooking. Any ideas/inspiration would be much appreciated.

Certain threads/topics "Unbookmarkable"?

Like most(all?) of the favorites, various others. I guess most/all of these are Floyd's early threads.

Am I missing something? Maybe it's always been so? Never noticed.

I needed to keep referring back to the "Cinnamon Rolls" thread, but have to use "search" each time. Or maybe I'm missing it listed with the favorites? Guess I could always bookmark with my browser.

Oh Dear Bread and Beer ---

So, we brewed a batch of Black IPA beer this weekend.  Here's a picture of our setup. My husband had the wort chiller in the beer kettle on the stove, a bucket of water and ice on top of the fridge draining into the wort chiller via a hose and a hose output from the wort chiller to the sink.  It worked perfectly, all gravity fed.  The beer is fermenting for about a week and then will be decanted left to rest for another week in the carboy and then on to bottling.
