Hello bakers!

My name is Jem, and I recently got my DREAM JOB at a local bakery here in Vermont.  I don't start until after the holidays, on January 3rd, to be exact.  I have NO experience in a professional bakery...only in my home.  I have been baking cookies, cakes, muffins, breads, and everything else since I was young.  (I'm still young though, I'm only 21!)  It all started with an easy bake oven for my 8th birthday, and then spritz cookies with my mom for Christmas....after that, I was in love.  I have made tons of my own recipes for all sorts of sweets.  My family-favorite ones are:  Whoopie Pies, Oatmeal Cream Pies, Peanut-Butter Double Chocolate Cookies, (A mouthfull), my truffles, and my Peanut Butter Chocolate Sour Cream Cake with Peanut butter Cream Cheese Frosting and a Chocolate Glaze.  Not only is the last one a lot to say, it also has a million colories and tastes like heaven!

Anyways, that is just the beginning of my story.  Hope to write more soon!

Hello,

I am new to breadmaking and have had some spectacular failures along with a lot of fun.  But I am learning and luckily just found this website.  I went through the lessons and feel like I just found the "Cliff Notes" on breadmaking.  I plan on baking again tomorrow with my newfound knowledge. 

I like hearty whole wheat bread and enjoy using freshly ground flour (currently use a Vita Mix to grind the flour) with a thick crust.

I look forward to reading and learning on this forum!

I am michelle and I stumbled upon TFL while looking for an asiago cheese bagel recipes like panera bread. I have been baking ever since. I made asiago rolls instead of bagels but they are wonderful. I also made my first ciabatta yeasterday and baggettes tonight. YUMM! Although they weren't perfect they were the best bread I've ever made. Thank you all so much for all the tips and knowledge you have bestowed upon my baking stones! I look forward to sharing more wondeful bread success stories with you all!
