This Week's Bread: Homemade tortillas.

Doin' my grandma's rolling pin proud.

# Flour Tortillas

Ama

3.0 cups flour
0.75 tbsp salt
0.5 tbsp baking powder
0.5 cup shortening
1.0 cup very hot water

1 - Hand mix all ingredients at once in a large mixing bowl until dough just comes together.
2 - Remove from the bowl and roll and knead dough on a flat surface until it's got a bumpy slightly tacky texture.
3 - Return the dough to the bowl and let it sit, covered by a damp cloth, for up to 8 hours (at least 30 minutes).
4 - Remove from the bowl and roll and knead dough on a flat surface until it's got a smooth and still slightly tacky texture.
5 - Return the dough to the bowl and let it sit, covered by a damp cloth, for five minutes.
6 - Break the dough into 16 balls.
7 - Roll out each ball with rolling pin into flat round tortillas, thin as possible.
8 - Cook on a griddle on high heat. Flip when tiny brown marks appear on the bottom side, about thirty seconds.
9 - Take tortilla off the griddle just as it begins to smoke. Repeat steps 7-9 as necessary.

Moonraker had such high hopes for the Space Shuttle's capabilities....

Looks like no cooking tonight. The pizza is being moved off to tomorrow, but the carne guisada and pork chops are still fairly frozen despite being taken out nearly 12 hours ago (stupid Seattle weather). So, well, tortillas, then. That's about all getting done tonight.

Guess I could try beating Ganon tonight. Could happen.

"James Bond is just No-Sci-Fi-All-Sexy-Times Doctor Who."

One of my favorite lines in all of cinema: "James Bond. You appear with the tedious inevitability of an unloved season."

Might need to move the pizza to tomorrow. Not a lot of time, and not a lot of spoons left.

Well, we're gonna try the hylian tomato pizza. Looking at my pizza recipes and the picture, it looks as though it's a modified margherita pizza (no basil, added bell pepper and black olives). So I've thrown together what might be a decent recipe from all the recipes and educated guesses. I'll try making it later tonight. ::fingers crossed::

Today's Completions. (1/4)

No game Sunday, as I'm using the fact that I no longer have the flu, and that I can force the neck pain into a dull roar, to do some very much needed chores and errands that have gone undone for almost a month (not because of Tears of the Kingdom, but cause sick/pain).
I get the idea Monday will see me finally finish the game....

Gearing up for the final gauntlet. What do you think. Got enough healing and weapons?

Gameplay spoilers for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom 

150 hours into the game, I finally got The Master Sword. And I have a LOT of feels about this, good and sad.

While I do have this shirt now, sadly, no one makes this shirt in my size. I'd wear it all the time....
