You've got some really nice breads there, Bob. I esp. like the multigrain loaf--one of my favorites.

Very nice breads Bob,
I especially like your boule. Looks like you have it figured out pretty well. I look forward to seeing you work.

The multigrain loaf is one of my favorites too; thanks jonkertb for starting me off on it.
