I really like to bake. I’m not good at it, but I like it. I think that part of the trouble is the demanding precision that good baking requires. I’m a kitchen designer by trade – it requires me to be exacting all day long. You would think that those skills would translate into good baking, but it turns out that one of the reasons I love cooking so much is the total lack of precision that’s needed for most dishes (
you know, everything else BUT baking).

I've made bread by hand before, and while I don't have a stand mixer, I let the dough setting on my bread machine do most of the work for me. Your French bread looks like it came from a bakery to me (and it looks a lot nicer than my attempt that I made a couple weeks ago!).
