Spent the last 90 minutes on the phone with mom going through her bread recipes today. We only had 19 recipes, but it took longer than pies. I guess it's because pies are easier to make. With dough you have to careful that all the yeast steps are correct and as explicit as possible.
My mom couldn't cook a thing when she married. Now, 56 years later, she's not patient explaining the complicated process of bread baking to anyone.
