And lo, there was bread

I just can't thank Jane enough for pointing me to this recipe for No-Knead Bread. Now, I'm thoroughly cooking-impaired, and I generally make bread that'll break your toes if you are unlucky enough to drop a loaf on your foot. But this came out perfect -- light, crispy, tasty, and incredibly easy. You need to start the night before in order to have bread the next day, but as long as you're not in a "must have bread NOW!" situation, it's fantastic.

It's been snowing intermittently since Thursday, so I'll console myself with bread. Sigh.

When I baked, I was firmly in the Tassajara(http://www.shambhala.com/html/catalog/items/isbn/1-57062-089-X.cfm) camp as opposed to my wife who would do dryer doughs(her current bible is the King Arthur Flour Cookbook). I would create far heavier breads, but I suspect it was my reliance on whole wheat flour.
