What a big turnoff.... indeed

To mark Earth Hour today, it has been reported that a lot of people and estabishments intend to participate and do their part and will swtich off their lights for one hour tomorrow, at 8:30pm (local time). What a noble thing to do! It would certainly make a huge difference to enable a brighter furture. But what I don't get it is some indicate they will switch off "unnecessary lightings" and the such. Hmmm, if they are unnecessary in the first place, why not swtiched it off permanently??!!

Another turnoff - the bread machine, is half-dead. It tripped my mains once it started the bake cycle, just like the last time. Looks like it has decided to observe the Earth Hour too, and switched itself off with about slightly an hour more to go. Guess I could only use it to knead from now on.

Although the bread machine did it's part, I've to pop my loaf inside the oven. (Hey, it is necessary) My sweet loaf ended up pretty hard and holely on top as I've set the temperature too high initially. Luckily the burnt rasins on top could be removed easily; but I should have taken a picture or two of blacken rasins sticking out. It looked kind of unqiue, and definitely one-of-a-kind. Overall, quite edible, but I do not expect any takers, even my little one who doesn't mind rasin buns.

Guess I will not attempt another bread until I visit SisC.
