No Knead Bread

Image
We just baked a loaf of no knead bread. It was quite wondrous. The recipe could use a little tweaking, possibly because of the altitude. A Google search for "no knead bread" revealed over a million hits. Look for a You Tube video from the New York Times.

Comeuppance for Home Depot

I refuse to ever use one of the automated checkouts at Home Depot where they replace humans with computers that like to speak "Espanol". I believe that they have and exhibit their contempt and disregard for American consumers Around 9 p.m., the man was in line at a self-service checkout stand, ready to buy a pry bar and hacksaw, according to a Seattle police report. But as a manager told an officer, the man accidentally hit the button for Spanish on the computer screen. And then Home Depot received the proper payment.
