The bread and the beer - 2 of the things I enjoyed in Cuba. Mother in law also loved the bread, might talk her into trying your recipe.

Thanks for the memory,

You're welcome Rob. Agree on the bread, hard to give it up. I never thought I'd be able to have it again due to all the lard, but watching Steve's method it clicked with me that it would work and it did great. Too good not to share.

I like bread that's green.
The kind you take out of your wallet
to pay for your beer.

Foggy - sounds like you have too much green in your wallet after selling your boat and are stressed about it. Drinking beer won't solve the problem. Go find yourself a new set of water wheels :mrgreen:
