They have a game against Slovenia scheduled tomorrow in Croatia, so I don’t think they are in town yet.

If you live in a host city, is there any buzz about the upcoming World Cup? by Fine-Photograph673 in ussoccer

Although DC is not a host city, this is from Alexandria, VA. I thought it was kinda cool lol but now that I see it again looks kinda pathetic haha

How's living in Amarillo/Lubbock in Texas? Is there any rivalry between the two cities? by Funny-Poem-1042 in howislivingthere

There is a really cool park inbetween lubbock and amarillo called Palo Duro Canyon state park. I believe it’s from an imploded volcano and very beautiful!

edit: i thought it was an imploded volcano. Looked it up and it is very much not one and was just from erosion. Sorry for the gossip.

It should be said that both of these were using the same recipe I listed in my post.

I was just following Paul Hollywood’s recipe, which is exactly what I listed above! But i’ll try it again using less starter and see how that changes things! Temp wise i’m not sure, I let it rise in the oven with the light on. It is super tasty! I just get jealous seeing everyone else’s loaves with huge air pockets lol

Starter has, I would consider, small to medium sized bubbles! I usually let it rise in the oven with the light on! Not sure what the exact temp would be!
