Hi , I am Petra
Hi I am Petra, I live in the UK on the beautiful Isle of Wight, though I am German.
My husband is English , so that is how I came to the UK. LOVE:)
I am 51 years of age, I have 3 boys ages 19,21 & 25, and a Daughter age 15.
I started baking 1 year ago , May 2013 and wish I had started YEARS ago.
Missing German crusty bread was what finally drove me to bake bread.
One learns so much from baking a lot and trying out different methods.
I now bake my breads * most of them * in a Dutch Oven * and do the S&F method instead of kneading.
I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis , my wrists and fingers aching a lot and I would not have been able to knead.
Well, that is it from me.
Happy baking.
Petra
