A Gift From My Son

[BGKYSmoker]

My one son spent 15 years in the US Army 82 AA/PIR. After his 5th deployment he had enough and went to culinary school for 3 years, didnt like it so he went for flight training. He is now a flight instructor in FT Collins Colorado.

I been showing him my bread bakes and he is really liking them. Today he sent me a gift. He said enjoy it dad and keep baking bread. I'm totally impressed your baking bread on your grill.
I'm proud of him serving our Country and returning safe. I have 2 more Army kids to worry about.
Im stoked to get this going.

Its a bread and other things foldable proofer. I'm thinking not only bread but fermenting salumi too.

The proofing is looking good.
I am electric baseboard heat so the bathroom is my proofing chamber. Wife appreciates a warm toilet seat in the morning and we continue on baking days,
