Trial by flour . . . !

Dar took some pics of me suffering through kneading bread -- in this case, our first loaf of sourdough, a white-flour by-the-book to see if it was working. It was really painful; I don't know why it feels so yucky to me, but I'm hoping a concentrated effort will diminish the effect through persistant repetition. 
 
 



I have to admit, the final results are worth just about any amount of torture!
