The older I get the less energy I have for cooking and baking, or by the time I get energy back after a walk it's too late to get involved in making bread.
Last night I said to myself time to get back to basics and do mis en place the day before so as to lessen the time needed the next day.
So last night I made the dough for home made pasta, and then put it in the fridge, then measured out all the dry ingredients and liquids for bread so all I kneaded (pun) to do today was combine

@NorthernInvader prep definitely helps. breaks up the process into smaller times needed to be vertical. i'm getting that way too🤫
@holon42 Yup - First station in cooking school is mise en place. :) I did that back in the late 60's. But only cooked professionally for a year then decided it wasn't for me as a career. Got out of that habit in marriage because I was working long hours and partner wanted to cook. Now that I'm a widower and in my 70s I need to get back to it before it's too late.
