I finished my bake oven!

[intheberkshires]

Thanks Dezi! And thanks for taking a look at the bake oven journal. It has now been a couple of years and I am still amazed and agog that this oven sits there in my back yard.

I use it as often as possible and just pulled out 11 loaves of bread.

My biggest worry these days (as far as bake ovens go - leaving out for the moment the collapse of the economy, homes being lost, etc etc) My biggest worry is being organized enough after the bake to utilize the oven's warmth. But when I am organized I can do roasts, braises, and, always, the best pot of slow cooked beans you will ever have.

I started out like most everyone else: looking at pictures and dreaming, dreaming!

So good luck to you Dezi! It's such a cool project and there are so many wonderful people on this forum to help you.

best wishes! Maria
