I'm not sure that I need to comment so much on this one. I want to be a
baker too.

I want to be a baker.
For a while last year, I was on a breadmaking kick.
I'd gotten _The Bread Bible_ as a birthday gift and decided to work my way through every bread recipe in the book.
There's something about making bread - taking the simplest of ingredients to make something so important.
That's all really good ideas are, huh?
You take the pieces, work them together and then walk away.
When you return, you see what's happened, push everything down and rework it all.
Do you know why you knead dough? It breaks up the gluten and adds to the elasticity of the dough. Fairly amazing stuff, really. I like the idea of walking away from my ideas only to come back, push them down and then rework them so that the pieces inside them break apart to make the whole stronger.

I'm not sure it will work this way, but I am willing to give it a try. I am
often times trying to figure out just who would hire me for what at this
point. I'm going in quite a few different directions, I'm just glad I have
something to hang my hat on and work from. Without it, I would be a little
lost.
