Recipe for Homemade Bread

1 1/2 cup of Hot Water
1 cup of Milk
4 teaspoons of Active Dry Yeast
3 tablespoons of Sugar

Mix the above ingredients and let the Yeast proof for 10-15 minutes.

Add to the mixture the following:
1 1/2 teaspoon of Salt
3 tablespoons of Vegetable Oil
6-6 1/2 cups of Flour

Let the dough Knead for 8 minutes in a stand mixer.

Let raise, covered, for 25 minutes.  Punch down.  Let raise again for 25 minutes.  Punch down.  This helps build the gluten and makes the crumb of the bread better.

Shape dough.  I put mine into bread pans.  Let raise again.

Trick - Put a pan of water in a warm oven to create a proofer.  Turn the oven on for 1 minute or less.  Put the bread in here - the steam doesn't let the dough harden on the outside.

Take dough out of oven before it is over-proofed.  About 10-14 minutes is all.

Set oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.  While oven heats up, the bread will finish proofing.

Bake bread for appx 28 minutes.

Clash of Clans - 1 Week in Results

This is my Base Layout.  It is Townhall Level 4.  I have all buildings and walls built.  I keep on leveling them.  One thing that I notice is that you can get a lot of resources and have both of your builders stuck on long projects.  Seems to be a good game...but the day plus build times are a drag and we're not even half way there.

Here are a couple results of some good raids.  I have done good raids and bad raids.  These capture the low count of troops and a good pull of resources.

From those raids, here is my Achievements showing the amount of Gold and Elixir I've pulled in after the first week.  A little over 800k Gold and more than 700k Elixir.  Best strategy, that I've seen so far, is to just find another player that has been AFK and hope for a weak base.  I don't even have Air Ballons, yet, I'm upgrading by Barracks for that now.
