Is it a total gut job or more of a cosmetic update? How much work needs to be done is the first question you should ask yourself. You should also ask professionals, because what you see may not even be the most important tasks at hand.

Stored this way, the bread should last 3 to 5 days. DIRECTIONS: 1. Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a large baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper, then lightly grease. 2. Separate the egg yolks and egg whites. 3. Add the softened cream cheese, yogurt or sour cream to the yolks. Beat with a hand mixer until fully combined and mostly smooth. Set aside. 4. Replace or clean the whisk attachments. Beat the egg whites until glossy and opaque. The mixture should form stiff peaks that don’t fall over; if the egg whites seem watery or foamy, beat them a bit more. 5. Add 1/3 of the egg whites to the yolks. Gently fold the egg whites into the yolks until just combined. Repeat with the remaining egg whites, 1/3 at a time. 6. Scoop the batter onto the baking sheet, forming six circles. Carefully spread until they’re
