Ha ha! Done the Blind Bake thing, done the brownies w/o flour (last Thanksgiving!!!) . . .

Over-rise the bread dough, check. No. 7, the Assume Recipes one, check. Assume the cake is done, check (years ago, at Christmas ; my niece loved it!).

And the timer? HAIL Yeah. Pretty much have trained myself to turn it on *most* of the time, but that "mental pause" thing, well, I do that too.

A great article, thank you for posting it!!!
