Flour delivery

I'm stupidly cheerful about having 75kg (165lb) of bread flour sitting in my hallway - just delivered yesterday.

Pillow Fight :twisted: :mrgreen:

:oops: sorry, got a bit carried away there myself.

I guess in the same way an artist can get excited about a set of canvases arriving. On their own they're nothing special, but the ideas you can play out on them... have fun!

Trust me, these pillows would kill - IF you could lift them! :)

Ha! Actually, only one bag is for me, the rest are for friends and neighbours. We have a baking "consortium". :)

Hard for me to get excited, C. When I worked in the bakery we had pallets delivered. :D And in the smallest restaurants I ever did I would buy four or five times that amount at one time.

And I think I'm really adventurous when I buy over 5 # at a time.

:sigh:

I'm beginning to think 12-step about now, Celia! I mean -- unless you just opened a bakery or somethin'! :shock:

Chef: yep, I know, it's tiny bikkies compared to retail and commercial outlets. But I love the potential it holds..like having a well stocked larder.. :)

Jo Ann: Only one bag is mine (although I have to confess there's a fair bit here already). At the moment, buying flour is still cheaper than therapy (just). :)
