The electric mixer whirred away, integrating the flour, yeast, sugar, salt, milk, water, and butter that Arlo had carefully measured. When it was a single doughy, sticky ball, he stopped the mixer and put a cloth over the glass bowl.
The dough had to rise.
As he waited, literally watching dough rise, his mind wandered to the concept of baking recipes. More than almost any other kind of food-related instructions, baking procedures most closely resembled the exacting nature of software code. This probably explains why many savory chefs refuse to learn how to bake and respond with indignation when asked to do so. It’s an art versus science divide.
This is why Arlo preferred baking to cooking.
As he thumbed through the faded 1950s era Betty Crocker Cookbook with loose and stained pages that his grandmother had passed down, he noticed an interesting note scribbled in the margins of a recipe for Tuna and Jell-o Pie:
CancelChain 1.3.0 has been released. This version simplifies configuration loading by adopting JSON type conversions when parsing environment variables. It also adds simple quick start instructions to help install and configure a basic CancelChain node quickly.
Although he was surprised by the philological inconsistency of the pencil-scribbled note, Arlo was much more disturbed by the thought of seafood jell-o. The 1950s must have been an awful tasting time.
