All the kneading I've done making pizza crust and bread, and my wife just puts the stuff in the upright mixer, and it turns out just as good or better.. I still roll it out with the French rolling pin, so it's still hands on. Yeah, some folks can throw pizza crusts up into the air, but I have to use a rolling pin. It's always a challenge to get the pizza crusts the right size for the pan, and as round as possible.

Kneading pizza crust in a plastic bag can be therapeutic for hands. I've been doing that but I'm tired of working my hands these days. I've done pizza dough with a stand mixer and dough hook but the mix hates pizza dough. I can just dump the ingredients in the bread machine and let it do all the work. These days, I want to do the least amount of work possible. I must be depressed.

and use your fingers to press it out to fit, starting from the center.
When I make pizza dough here... once it's ready, I'll smash it down with
the palm of my hand to about 6" round and thick. At that point I set it
in the center of my 16" solid pizza pan and work it out to the edge with
my fingers, rotating pan as I go.
Doesn't take long, maybe 5 minutes or a bit more. If at any point you
press it too thin and get a tear, easy to patch with a bit of dough from
the edge.

bought in the late nineties still works today because I've never used it
to bake bread but only to make dough. The paddle has been mangled due to
dropping in the garbage disposal. Finding that replacement is really
easy and got a few in an order. Never again a problem.
I've had to do maintenance on the pan since the metal parts wear over
the years. They're standard size parts easy to get at lowes.
Anyway, the two pounds of dough is enough to make two pizzas. I'll make
one pizza with the dough and make fried bread with the rest for the next
day. They make excellent pocket bread for sandwiches or sweet dessert
with cinna and sugar.
That bread machine turned out the best early kitchen investment I made
in my twenties.

Inexperienced people can't stretch one pizza crust in about 3-4
minutes, professional pizza makers need about 2 minutes to
stretch/spin one pizza crust and about another minute to top it, and
10-12 minutes to bake and slice it.

All the subsequent talk about dough hooks got me thinking about getting
a stand mixer with a dough hook. I just about burned out my hand mixer
making gingerbread cookies last month. My light fruit cake is alos very
challenging to the hand mixer. I make pizza every week or two and I have
the option of using a dough hook or kneading the dough.
I broke down last week and ordered one online. I ordered a KitchenAid
Artisan series unit. I just got an email advising that it has shipped.
I should have it in a few days,

batchelors in education. I didn't get paid but taught 6 classes a day.
Because of the dual minor it was 1 Basic English, 1 AP english, 2
Biology, 1 general science, and 1 Earth science. 5 lesson plans a day
to prepare.
I got a break though as the English teacher saw my schedule and said he
had it all planned out so I could just use his teaching points. Earth
and general science were hardest as I had no guidance but a text book
split to where I was to end the semester at.
No pay. The only break was lunch was subsidized to 'student rate'
since I was a college student.... I remember thinking how 'rich' I
would have been if paid minimum wage! (grin).
The idea I was told is most 'student teachers' require so much
watching, it's hard to get a teacher to allow one because it costs them
time but I was told by all of mine that I did really well and actually
left them with lots of free time after the first week or so of making
sure I had the hang of it.

Here´s and old one. Computers (and apparently bread machines) run on smoke.
If the smoke escapes, the machines die.

recipe didn't mind the somewhat oily result. The coffee grinder *always*
made a helluva mess on the counter-top so it was only used a few times. As
for the can-opener, it was never used and these days I have one of those
side-cutting ones when I do open a can.

In those days, if you wanted cream, you had to know a dairy farmer who sold
it "on the side". The only generally available cream was the "top of the

we had burgers last week from ground beef which was very
fatty, Mom said she wasn't sure if she should get that or
ground chuck, i prefer ground chuck as it has just the right
amount of fat and then i don't have to dispose of all the
fat from the pan. why pay for something you're not going
to eat? there was probably six ounces of fat in the pan
after i cooked up the four burgers. i joked that if i was
starving we could have made gravy out of it and the other
stuff stuck on the pan. as it is, nope, i'm certainly not
starving.
when doing a roast i also like a chuck roast.
we don't really eat beef that often, but when i have it
i'm finding that i prefer ground chuck even more than the
steaks, but i still think i prefer a roast more than any
other way because i also like all the other roasted things
that go with it.

On my 1975 London visit, we stayed in Bloomsbury, in the British Museum area (at the Thanet Hotel on Bedford Place, now a nice place, then a dumpy B&B catering to cheap student groups. https://thanethotel.co.uk/ ) A new Safeway had just opened nearby and it was considered quite a big deal. It was a purpose - built facility, and laid out in the "US style"...
On her 1957 State Visit to the US, Queen Elizabeth was keen to see an American supermarket...and she did so. She spent time wandering the aisles and chatting with the - astounded! - customers, the date is 19 October 1957:
https://www.routeonefun.com/the-queen-at-west-hyattsvilles-giant-terps-v-tar-heels-game-in-college-park/
"During Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip’s first visit to the United States as a monarch, they managed to catch a Terp’s game against North Carolina and watch them defeat the Tar Heels, 21-7. After the football game, the Queen and her Prince also paid a visit to the former Giant Food Store in West Hyattsville, as “The supermarket, in its awesome majesty, is a growing symbol of American abundance,” wrote one AP reporter covering the Queen’s visit to the store.
According to this Washington Post article:
The royal limousine drew up before the Giant Food Store and, to the complete amazement of hundreds of weekend shoppers, the Queen and her Prince consort got out and walked into the store. Housewives and other shoppers inside the store looked up in astonishment as they found the Queen and Prince Philip peering into their shopping carts. … While the Queen strolled about, the Prince separated from the party and soon found himself munching sample crackers and cheese bits someone offered him. “Good for mice,” he smiled at the gaping crowd around him. The young Queen, clad in a mink coat, appeared charmed by the shopping carts with small seats for youngster. “How nice that you can bring your children along,” Her Majesty told one woman who was wheeling a baby..."
http://cookedbooks.blogspot.com/2011/01/queens-trip-to-american-supermarket.html
"On October 19, 1957, in West Hyattsville, MD, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip paid an unexpected visit to a local supermarket, their first to any American grocery store. The New York Times reported that the royal couple turned into the appropriately named Queenstown shopping mall on the way home from a football game at College Park and wandered into a "giant food store. " The Queen, escorted by the store's manager, looked over the vegetables, "then moved to the dairy food counters where methods of keeping the food chilled were explained." She was, apparently, also intrigued by the meat counter: "The Queen seemed especially interested in chicken wrapped in transparent plastic and looked hard at a large counter filled with steak." Meanwhile, Prince Philip wandered around the store, eating cheese and crackers..."
GM note: the UK had only gotten off of postwar rationing three years earlier, in 1954. Wiki: 'When did food rationing stop? Fourteen years of food rationing in Britain ended at midnight on 4 July 1954, when restrictions on the sale and purchase of meat and bacon were lifted. ..'
Here is a link to a more in - depth article on the Queen's supermarket visit, from The Saskatoon Star - Phoenix [21 October 1957]; she was fascinated by the cut - up chickens "wrapped in cellophane", also that people could select the goods themselves:

In the dark end of the year, when fresh green vegetables were not
abundant, yes, Granny bought tinned veg. I have a vivid memory of those
little artificially green round things on the plate, the green dye
seeping into the mashed potatoes. Gran (like many people at the time)
didn't even have a fridge, let alone a freezer, so if you wanted a
change from cabbage, neeps, onions, leeks, and carrots, you resorted to
tins.
During the growing season, we always had lovely fresh veg.
