Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.

Flour now comes "pre-sifted". It makes me wonder what they do to it to accomplish this? Is this one more thing we'd actually be better off if it hadn't been invented?Tereza Okava wrote:I do remember my mother baking and needing her flour sifted, and the sifter being ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE for me to work with kiddie hands. (to this day I almost never sift, but you can be bet my sifter is slightly more user friendly, lol)
