Happy baking, from Philly!

Hi everyone, greetings from the City of Brotherly Love,

I always loved making bread at home but only really developed a deep passion for it very recently. I am studying to get into medical school and bread-baking is my way of alleviating the stress of exams! I love that bread appeals to all ages, and am so excited to see people from allover the world are a part of this site. But I also hope we can revive an appreciation for baking and bread that I feel is lost in my age group (I am 25 years old), particularly in the United States. Looking forward to soaking in all sorts of knowledge from everyone. Happy baking!

Hi Nuremel, glad you found us.  I also live in Philly and also work in healthcare, and baking--anything!--is my way to cope with a crazy schedule and limited time for myself.  Put me in the kitchen with my digital scale, my KAM and a recipe, and I'm in the zone...

There are some wonderful bakers on this site; I've appreciated reading the archives and receiving answers to my  many questions.  

Enjoy!
