I managed to make The Bread That Ate Manhattan this evening. I followed the recipe and everything. I think maybe I left it to rise too long. Still, it'll be lighter that way, which is probably a good thing for wholemeal walnut bread.
The recipe picture looks like this:

But the RL finished product looks like this - with, for comparison, my hand (did I ever tell you about the time I was a hand model? My life sounds so much more interesting in brief soundbites):

I should just look at it from the side. It looks relatively normal from the side:

A thinks I'm funny.
Mmm, walnut bread...
ETA: In case anyone's interested, the recipe. Is v. nice, but they're not kidding when they say "Makes 1 large loaf".

Hand model? Did that mean you had to get other people to do anything that might remotely scratch you up?

Heh - well, yes, but only VERY briefly. My hands were used in an SMA photo campaign when I worked for an ad agency. They needed someone urgently, and decided I had the nicest hands in the office. :D
