you fall into ice

you’re stuck in an elevator

Another comment:

"Twelve hours is a long rise that will lead to the bread collapsing and becoming denser unless you put the dough in the fridge, in which case it will make for better flavor. If you don't have room in the fridge, just let it rise an hour or so, it'll be fine. Then punch it down, shape it into a loaf or a braid or whatever you like, and let it rise another half hour or so before you bake it.

Also, 450 for 45 minutes is too hot for too long, in my oven at least. 400 works fine, and check it after 30 minutes - it should be golden brown and the bottom should sound hollow when tapped.

If you want to make bagels, take this bread dough, let it rise, cut it into eight or twelve portions depending on desired size of final bagel. Roll each portion into a ball, stick your finger through it and stretch it into a bagel ring. Then bring to a boil about 2 quarts of boiling water with about a half cup honey, sugar, or malt powder in it. Put the bagels in two or four at a time, depending on size, and boil them one minute on each side. Then put them onto baking sheets, give them an egg wash if you happen to splurge and have an egg handy, then bake them at 400 for 20 minutes or so.

Soft pretzels can be made pretty much the same way except shape them into pretzel shapes, instead of sugar add a half cup of baking soda to the boiling water, and boil only 30 seconds on each side. Top with pretzel salt if you like."

Also, zest those lemons and limes as well. Never toss out an unzested citrus.
