The aroma of freshly baked bread and what a wonderful smell it is. Needless to say the boss has been busy knocking a couple of quick loaves up for the hungry people.
Barney, one of our Jack Russell Terriers, got perilously close to nicking one as they were rising but fortunately he was headed off at the pass, especially after the great Ciabatta dough stealing escapade. We payed for that thieving at the vets and with a three figure bill before the decimal point I might add.
Now, the big question is how can I cut the end off each loaf without being noticed and get some butter on it?
I've got it, Barney did it.
No I didn't, honest, it's a fit-up boss.
