Bohemian from AR

As I was researching mixers I came across this most informative forum.  I do like making bread, and my aspiration is to be half as good as my old maternal relatives who made the most wonderful breads, pastries and kolaches with nary a measuring instrument in sight.  I weigh and measure, and turn out acceptable breads, but nowhere near as good as those wonderful old aunties in the fifties.   I've got lots to learn!
