My beer cheese bread turned out perfectly, two days ago. I needed that candy thermometer, though.

Today, as I started out making the official Thanksgiving Beer Cheese Bread, I knocked the thermometer against the pan of hot water.

"Oh, that would be just like me," I thought, "to break the thermometer as I start the actual batch of bread."

I didn't really think it was broken, though. It was a very gentle tap.

But it was broken, and now I am about to run out to the store on Thanksgiving morning to get another thermometer. I didn't want to make this bread on time, anyway.

It wouldn't be Thanksgiving if the beer cheese bread went smoothly.
