Sarah, yes thanks for the present, we had our family thing last night, opened presents....... to my amazement and astonishment. Your research from this board was unparalleled... the various HAND MILLED flours and whole grains... plus your recipe for sprouted whole grain bread... wow. I'll post pictures when I make the bread. Thanks for the Stanley Elkin books as well, I am curious about them and now have them at my disposal to in fact, "check out". As for the pumpkin seeds, well let's hope I won't be needing those. Thank you so much, it was worth the wait to open it!
And to Stan; I'm glad you enjoyed the bread, that means a lot to me! Have a nice year everyone!
