I've mentioned this before and stand confident in the fact this site satisfies my desire to document stuff, even in the absence of an audience. All my notebooks are gathering dust and gradually being replaced by this dynamic medium. However, catching the eye of an occassional visitor, sometimes from far away, is an added benefit I never anticipated.

I received a flattering correspondence yesterday from Petra, an amazing baker in Germany. The site's in German, but the photos of the breads speak for themselves. They are amazing. My favorite so far (I'm far from being finished drooling over this site): the fougasse and the Portugese bread. I haven't made either of these, but might give them a try now. Thanks for visiting Petra!
