Friday Bread This Week<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Pain au Levain \u2013<\/strong> Made with a nice mix of bread flour and freshly milled whole wheat and rye flours. After building the sourdough and mixing the final dough it gets a long cool overnight ferment in the refrigerator. This really allows the flavor to develop in this bread. A great all around bread \u2013 $5\/loaf<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Cinnamon Raisin \u2013<\/strong> Made with a poolish of bread and fresh milled rye flour that is fermented overnight before the final dough is mixed with bread flour and freshly milled whole wheat as well as rolled oats. Some honey for sweetness, a little milk for a tender crumb and loaded with raisins and a healthy dose of cinnamon. This is not a rich sweet bread with a swirl of cinnamon sugar, instead the cinnamon is mixed into the dough and flavors the entire bread. It is a hearty rustic loaf. Great for breakfast toast, even better for French Toast \u2013 $5\/loaf<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

and pastry this week\u2026<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Individual Cinnamon Rolls \u2013<\/strong> Made with a rich sweet roll dough full of eggs, butter and sugar. The dough is rolled out, spread with pastry cream and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. Then rolled up and sliced into individual rolls for baking.\u00a0 \u2013 2\/$5<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Economics of the Heart: Project 2025 Hits the Newstands
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

For far too long America’s mainstream media (NYT, WaPo, many more, and of course Fox) have squandered so much time on “The Contest” that news coverage of the 2024 Presidential campaign has been squandered on constant criticism of the President’s age, with purposeful minimization of the value and importance of the many economic accomplishments of his Administration. At the same time they have covered every rally, tweet, lie, idiocy, and lunacy of the Tweetster with irresponsible reticence on the existential threat posed by his relentless Ignorance about Everything Imaginable. <\/span><\/p>\n

Now at last the mainstream press is starting to hear the rising alarm about the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, which offers a thousand pages<\/em> of detailed plans to destroy everything this country has stood for for 250 years. It poses an existential threat to the Entire World by ending Constitutional government in our country, leaving NATO, abandoning Ukraine, and aligning politically with Russia, China, Austria, North Korea and their ilk.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

So it is with long overdue and still tentative relief to see that today’s NYT has (finally!)<\/em> published a major article from the Editorial Board declaring in plain language that he-who-may-only-been-spoken-of-here-with-derision as “the Tweetster, is<\/em>\u00a0 UNFIT TO LEAD<\/span>.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span>\u00a0 (Which we have been saying on this blog since February, 2018.)<\/span><\/p>\n

A rapidly growing public Firestorm is growing, unleashed by the much-hyped release of “Project 2025,<\/span>“<\/a> the Heritage Foundation’s latest policy recommendations for the next Republican administration. Earlier versions of these reports played major roles not only in getting Reagan, Bush I, and Bush II into the White House, but also in providing their Administrations with detailed draft legislation carefully designed to replace moderate and liberal policy with billionaire- and dictator- friendly policies. (see video summary<\/span><\/a> )
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

More and more people are now getting it that if these guys get control of our government again, everything we believed in and fought for about those words “form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity”\u00a0<\/em>will disappear into a dark, merciless, dystopian Hell.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

As we mentioned last week, California Congressman Jared Huffman has launched the<\/span> Stop Project 2025 Task Force<\/strong><\/a><\/span>,<\/span> with an accelerated timetable for researching, analyzing, and sharing data with Congress and the public on the grave dangers of Project 2025 and working to counter them. Hopefully today’s article from the Times means that the word is getting out, and people are getting informed and energized by these grave threats. Indeed, in just the last few days “Project 2025” has gotten more online hits than “Taylor Swift”<\/em> and “NFL 2024 schedule”<\/em> combined!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is serious, existential stuff, with everything our country stands for at stake. We should be as afraid of the Tweetster loyalists (many of whom were in his administration) as we would be of Tolkien’s Nazg\u00fbl ring-wraiths, (image above)<\/em> the Essence of Evil, devoid of compassion, obsessed with Ego and Power.
