First, she bakes with a 3 cup flour recipe that fits in in a 10 and 1/4 inch DO labeled 8 and the loaf sits on parchment paper. Second she read an adjustment a while back where you start the bread in a cold dutch oven in a cold oven and start timing when the oven reaches temp. She uses 425 covered for 30 minutes and uncovers it. Then she bakes another 20 to 30 minutes until internal temp is about 210. When done, remove the bread by the paper and let the dutch oven cool in the stove. As for the two batch idea, it will work, but suggest you use her cold oven method. Another alternative is to make your batch of dough, divide after you knock down the first time and freeze half. After you freeze it, vac seal it. When you want to bake the second half take it out and let it thaw under a towel and then let it do its second rise. Based on other slow rise recipes we have tried, I bet the second batch will be better than the first.

Home made queso on top of dressing with chicken wing meat.

Left over chicken.

Every once in a while you can have a numbers day like that. Oddly, those days rarely include big fish. Some years ago I had a 63 fish day on a topwater. The best five might have made 12 pounds.

I said I was not going to post "same old" meals/pictures. Nancy insisted on this one. She loves a meat sauce.

I approve this message.

Flat iron steak? Like flank steak, you mess up and you need a chain saw. Flat iron steak, mushrooms, roasted potatoes, and asparagus.

I don't know any of youse guys.

Spare ribs braised with carrots and onions.

As usual, the members of this board are very helpful. Thank you all. It has made it much easier.

Beginning in the 70's and continuing into the 90's. a group of us made an annual trip to fish below the Bull Shoals dam. We began by renting boats with a motor at the "boy scout" dock directly below the dam and tent camping. We later stayed at Rim Shoals when you could still see through the floor to the ground. We fished out of Cotter several times (both sides) and later at Sportsmans and Gastons. Later in the stretch we hired guides at Hurst's, CDC?, and Sportsmans. My last trip I hired Eldon, the Gassville police chief? to fish my father and I. It was my father's last fishing trip. Since I have moved back to Tulsa, I have reconnected with the surviving member of the original group. He wants to fish the river again. He has asked two elders (like me) to go with us. We plan on going during the week before Mother's Day. Drive over one afternoon, fish the next day, and drive back the third. Two boats with four fishermen, two of which are less experienced. We will be spin fishing. Two of us prefer fishing artificials, but we are not married to the idea. If we fish bait, we will insist on barbless circle hooks. Where do we stay? Who should we hire to guide? What should we expect to pay? All suggestions are welcome.

You guys want a challenge? Stage the same type of event in the first week of September. Try jigging spoons in 50 feet of water. 😁 🤣

One pot chicken curry with rice, potatoes, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, and peas.

Brunch with daughter today: asparagus bacon quiche.

Baked some cod with a toasted crumb crust and added a side of asparagus risotto. Avocado with balsamic salad. The cod was chewy and dry. Lord how I miss Tablerock walleye.

Larger platter -> tuna and avcado Smaller platter -> cucumber avocado

Boat is sold. I will never fish there again. Close this thread down Phil.

Decks are similar to pick up trucks. The size is in inverse proportion to other areas lacking.

Bogas are hard on trout, yes. Never had a problem with bass or walleye.

Get on ebay and buy a used Boga! Tie it to a partial pool noodle to keep it from sinking when you drop it in the water. Buy some forceps to take the hooks out of the fish. You will soon learn the value of this advice if you keep lipping crank hooked fish by the lower jaw.

I have made only two visits to emergency care for unplanned hook sets. One for a spook and one for a wart. I self removed two others, a Sammy type bait and a flicker shad. The two latter were yank and pulls not involving joints. These are the reasons I bought a Boga and forceps.

19th is a no go for me. Someone needs to win one in honor of those in the past.

We are all happy you no longer have a pain in the neck around.

Made tabouli yesterday to go with fried chicken today. Tried a new technique on the chicken. It was good, but was fussy, and it resembled the KFC extra crispy version. The version the original colonel called fried dough balls.

Yes. He is.
