I was inspired to create this blog when I joined Nicole’s May, 2009 “BBA Challenge” to bake each of the recipes in Peter Reinhart’s award-winning 2001 book, The Bread Baker’s Apprentice, in alphabetical order.  One might ask why a raw foods enthusiast would be an avid bread baker.  Bread is more than food to me. It is both a science and an art.  It is a cultural symbol of coming together, of sharing, and even of security.  The true joy of bread is in the baking and the sharing.  If you enjoy artisan breads please feel free to subscribe to this blog and share your own stories with me.
