More bread (less, actually)
To be scientific, an experiment has to be repeatable. At least, that’s what my high school teacher told us. And to ensure that aspect, the experiment should be recorded. I guess I finally have a reason for those lab reports we produced, without understanding the rationale. I’m older now.
Earlier this week, my bread machine and I produced a delicious loaf of bread. All gone, now. I had followed a standard recipe, with one add (an egg). Today, I redid my experiment, and left the egg in the refrigerator. The loaf was equally delicious, but smaller. Given that I did use the same recipe and the same ingredients (almost) and the same machine, I can now postulate that the egg is an add (as in a positive addition). So… the next loaf in the series should be larger. I feel like my time in science class has finally brought me to an epiphany.
We’re starting our storm, now; this evening. Schools were closed across parts of ON and QC and NB (I think). Tomorrow is technically a ped day, here, so the absence of students will not be due to inclement weather. But, take this as a given: winter isn’t over, just yet.
The afternoon post brought another carton of fig bars. My order was a repeat of past ones, except that the photo was slightly different, and the price was about 20% lower. Going forward, I’m going to check for the cheapest seller, since that seems to be the only variable. This, too, qualifies as scientific. Analysis, I mean.
This evening, the family tree database moved on past the 93K mark.
