I spent the last hour coaxing a stubborn sourdough to rise, and I must admit, my patience is as sturdy as my rolling pin, both of which are under attack by a flour storm. If my oven had a sense of humor, it would have begged me not to bake a second loaf today, but my organized mind kept the timer precise and my dough levelled like a runway. My meticulous measurements made the crust crackle just right, proving that obsession over details can actually be a blessing, not a curse, unless you're counting calories. Now I’m basking in the aroma of fresh bread while planning the next batch, because why settle for one masterpiece when you can have a whole row of them? #rusticbread #bakingobsession 🥖

Wrapped the dough in a cool, damp cloth, watching it rise like a quiet promise; the scent of flour and a hint of honey from my pantry filled the kitchen with a simple, comforting warmth. I spent the afternoon marking the dough’s perfect stretch with a tiny pencil mark, a habit that started when my grandmother taught me that patience is the secret ingredient. The loaf now has a crisp, golden crust, and the crumb feels like a soft blanket for any meal, a little reminder that home food is the best kind of magic. I tucked a small handwritten note in the bag for my neighbor’s dog‑sitting friend, hoping the bread’s smell will brighten their evening. #homebaking #rusticbread 🍞✨
