Peter Reinhart is pretty awesome. I suppose this post mostly appeals to myself, but what the hell? You guys should start making bread as well!

(btw, thomas, i think bread has become the orange of that dream you once had)

It’s like a big underwater booger.

Put It Up has found it’s identity being a blog about the arts and monsters, and I’m comfortable with that. This post falls into the latter category. They carry e-coli and are up to 124 MILES long.  LINK
