A note to my fellow bakers~

If you DO NOT want a Hiroshima-sized flour cloud suspended throughout your entire just-scrubbed-spotlessly-clean-yesterday kitchen space, and if you DO NOT want to have to RE-clean that same lovely kitchen space... from top to bottom... without delay...

please, please, please be sure to check... and perhaps even recheck... the lid on your grain mill. It must be firmly locked in place.

And that's all I've got to say about that.

Oh friend - so discouraging... just last week after I cleaned the boys' room from top to bottom.. dust, vacuum - the whole nine - Sam decides to have a poop fest in there. All I could do was cry... I feel your pain... at least it was only flour and not any bodily fluids - if you know what I mean. :) Love you

Trying really hard not to smile Heather. Just think what a great story this will make when you're sharing memories with the kids!

My mother's day gift this year was a grain mill, and the first time I used it I didn't push the bowl all the way in. So I know exactly what your kitchen must have looked like. : (
