Rustic Loaf with Yoghurt

[vivacity]

Hi, Isi!

I'm just enjoying the first slice of your rustic loaf for which I ground whole wheat and rye. I buy 5 kg bags of cereal grain and mill them in the TMX when necessary (never had any problems with weevils...). What attracted me to the recipe was the fact that it uses oat flakes which gives me an excuse to flake them myself with my funky cereal flaker.

Anyway, the bread tastes amazing and it has a good, moist texture. Next time I'll bake it in my silicon loaf pan because it was a bit of a bother getting the bread out of the tin (it's obviously not a good tin).

This is great, Isi. Please keep the recipes coming

I had planned to make this today as I'm hanging out to try it but went whopping with DD instead. It will have to wait until Monday as we have a car rally tomorrow and the Model A is going for the first time. Hope it doesn't boil as it is to be 41⁰ here.

Cookie 1: What's whopping

[Chelsea (Thermie Groupie)]

I'm guessing shopping, although whopping also sounds very fun.

 : to whopping.  Hope you and DD had a whopping good time shopping Cookie1     I'm sure you do these misprints on purpose, just to give us a good laugh.

Oh, where is the embarrassing icon? I usually re read my posts and obviously didn't this one. Glad you enjoyed the laugh. Perhaps whopping is when we go shopping and stop at Dome (coffee shop) on the way home to have something naughty with coffee.  (cake wise, that is!)

I'd quit whilst you are ahead Cookie1, the more you say the more you are getting in deeper and deeper

Thought we could start an isi fan club.   A whopping good idea???

I thought whopping was some obscure Australian racket sport

Isi - Cookie typed "whopping" by mistake instead of "shopping".

"Whopping" is sometimes used to mean "very very big" or "huge" as in a "whopping salary increase" which means a very large pay rise - don't suppose many of us will be talking about that in this economic climate 

Please do ask about anything you don't understand on this Forum - we very much want you to be able to join in our fun

  Glad you are having fun isi but hope Katya's explanation allows you to understand why we all found it so funny.  I still crack up everytime I read it (which is often).  Reminds me of my dear mum whose hearing has never been the best.  At family gatherings when everyone was still sitting around the table, she would always get up and start the dishes and tell us to stay where we were (hard to do though).  We would laugh at something that was said and she would laugh as well so I presumed she could hear what was said.  I went over one time to start helping her and commented on whatever it was that had made us all laugh.  She told me she didn't know what we were laughing about but us laughing made her laugh.  Poor Mum, great in one-to-one conversations but gets lost in a crowd.

Oooh another one for my "To do" list!

Just goes to show that even if English is your first language, we can all make mistakes that are rather amusing!

You poor thing Meagan,  I ahd never had them until last year when I purchased some besan flour from a local Indian shop.  To my horror when I went to use it there were cobwebs all inside the packet - yyou guessed it it went in the bin and now I can't bring myself to go back to that shop!!!!
