Saturday! Saturday! Saturday!

At the inugural running of the Gross Family Bread Bakeoff Dan "I Feel the Knead for Speed" Gross dusted Michele "Pedal to the Metal" Gross with King Arthur All Purpose Flour. Dan carefully measured his water, yeast, and flour and loaded them into his supertuned Oster Breadmaker then pushed the autopilot button and stepped back. Michele threw her mixture into her Kitchen Aid K5A 1970's vintage mixer placed it in 1st gear and launched at 3,000 rpm. As she reved it to 5,000 rpm and shifted to 2nd gear all hell and 2nd gear broke loose. There were parts and ingredients strewn from the refrigerator to the kitchen table. As Dan enjoyed a slice of fresh bread and a nice little glass of California Gewurztraminer Michele went to Jerry's Speed Shop/Macy's and bought a new Kitchen Aid Mixer/Early Birthday Present. Buy your tickets early for next week's race. We are going to use whole wheat flour.

What color did you buy? (Is that acceptable?!?)
