I've only recently got into baking these last few months after losing my job and having the time to really try and learn. Most have come out pretty good so far.

I'd like to try to make everyone on my list (not many, like 10 or so people) some tasty bread for Christmas as a gift, I plan to aslo make apple butter and maybe something else to go along.

I'm just looking for ideas and tips as a beginner cooking several loaves for the first time. I don't have a dutch oven, it's been on my list for several Christmas' but they're just so expensive. So I would be using a good old oven for baking them.

I saw that putting a pan of water in the oven helps make it crispy. Anything else I can do to help with the process?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Edit: Solved, thanks to Matthew and everyone else for helping me out. Leaving this up just in case someone needs to search it in the future. Thank you!

I'm so sorry if this isn't the right place for it, but I tried to search communities and couldn't find one specifically for questions like this.

I'm running an AMD Radeon 580 Series, if it helps

I'm not sure which details are relevant so I'm just going to explain the whole situation and hopefully it helps:

So a couple days ago I had a brownout of my power and my computer got shut off. My second monitor seemed to die at the same time, so I unplugged it and plan to get a new one.

Now, when I play games my computer is telling me my graphics card doesn't meet the minimum requirements.

I tried to open up the software for the graphics card but a box comes up saying: "The version of AMD Radeon Software you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed graphics driver. Please check your system for other versions of Radeon Software that may currently be installed. A factory reset of your Radeon software installation is recommended. More information about this problem can be found at: Link that doesn't work"

So I've looked at my drivers, updated them, did a whole tutorial on how to fix it involving ending process tress and %localappdata% but that didn't work. I tried to open the BIOS to try and figure it out but that didn't seem to give me any info.

And I can't find a way to factory reset my radeon software without the Radeon Software app. I've run compatibility troubleshooters, that did nothing.

And yes, I've turned my computer off and on many times in the process but nothing has worked. So please, if anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it. I just bought two new games on the Steam Summer Sale and I'd really like to be able to play them.

Thanks so much.

Every door in my house looks like this due to past owner pets and a bit of my own cats helping the damage along. It's been a project on the list for years and now i'm finally getting to it.

I, of course, started with looking at new doors. But my doors are a non-standard size as far as I can tell (29.75in x 79.25in) so I think I would have to get the cut custom to fit?

I then looked into things like peel and stick wallpaper and the like but I don't know if that will look good, or lay properly flat since it's so damaged and, of course, my cats just need one swipe to damage it yet again.

Then I looked into the wood filler, which I didn't know was a thing until I saw a comment on a door repair video. But I'm not sure if that will work here?

So that's all that I've researched but I'm unsure as to what the best approach is, any help would be appreciated. I would really like to make as little waste and spend as little money as possible, while still have staying power to the repair. How would you go about it? Any tips/tricks?

Thanks for the help!

My very wild garden pushed these guys out of a pot of soil I was going to plant some herbs in but I liked the leaves so I decided to let this guy grow. Don't know what it is but it's pretty.
