I’m lucky I know a about the science of rising bread. I freaked out a bit last night because my bread took over two hours to rise. This recipe (gluten free) rises normally in 45-50 minutes.

Groundbreaking UK gene therapy offers hope after progress of three-year-old
Oliver Chu from California first person to have the one-off treatment for Hunter syndrome
Doctors are cautiously optimistic about a groundbreaking gene therapy for children affected by a devastating inherited disorder after seeing positive results in the first boy to receive the treatment.
