Evil Grinning Bread

We have been baking bread for quite a while now, and still trying to perfect our skills.  Bread making is quite difficult---each week we will try to be as precise and accurate as possible, in terms of our measurements, temperature, timing etc, and yet each week the bread that comes out is different. Nevertheless, it has been fun and tasty, and it is definitely great to know exactly what goes into the food you eat.

Today we seem to have done everything well, except that we forgot to score the dough before they went into the oven, so the bread expanded and "lifted" their top off, creating  fissures at the sides.  One of our loaves, which we baked in a round tin, opened up with a big grin, as you can see :)
