James Beard on Bread
"If you can read and have an oven and a work space, there is no reason why you can’t make a decent loaf of bread." —James Beard
This is what I have been preaching all along. I would even say you don't need to read. Everything lies in our little brain (stubborn). We have to battle our fears and just try. Success is eminent when you give it a chance and bake until you succeed.
Good luck!
Cooking by the Numbers ... Man'oushe
Looking into the bestselling cookbooks of 2012

One name comes up over and over again in discussions of the future of cookbooks: Ottolenghi. Israeli chef Yotam Ottolenghi’s Jerusalem (Ten Speed, 2012) is drawing attention to Middle Eastern cooking both here and in the U.K. (where Ottolenghi has four restaurants).
Kate Heddings, deputy food editor of Food & Wine and executive editor of the magazine’s cookbooks, such as America’s Greatest New Cooks
(Feb.), says Middle Eastern seems to be the hot new cuisine. She
foresees growing popularity for Jewish and Persian food and points to
the success of Clarkson Potter’s The Mile End Cookbook (2012) and anticipation for Russ & Daughters: Reflections and Recipes from the House That Herring Built
(Schocken, Mar.) by Mark Russ Federman, former owner of the eponymous
appetizer store on New York’s Lower East Side. In May, Interlink hopes
to capitalize on the burgeoning Middle Eastern trend with Barbara Abdeni
Massaad’s Man’oushé: Inside the Street Corner Lebanese Bakery, about the pizza-like national pie of Lebanon.

Messages from Lebanon: The Food Manifesto
This woman is wonderful. She is preaching the Slow Food philosophy without even knowing about Slow Food. It's common sense. Eat local foods, women cook for your family, preserve traditional recipes.
God bless you ya hajjeh!

Bravo, keep going... continue. We need more like you! The music rocks and the lyrics are authentic, true to the actual culture and ideologies the young are living through. Sometimes that bothers some people, who cares!
