Bread

I love bread. It's that simple. I probably could live off of of a baguette and some french butter for every meal. I attempted to make some french bread in middle school after learning about it in my home economics class. The loaf of bread was as hard as a baseball bat so needless to say it wasn't edible. It did look pretty though.

A few days ago, Amazon's deal of the day was a bread maker. I was tempted to go ahead and purchase it because it was a really good deal, but the reviews weren't that great. My hubby surprised me later that day with a new bread maker to cheer me up from my bad day. I was so excited to make my first loaf of bread.



I decided to make a Cinnamon Swirl Raisin loaf. I'll have to admit that I was a bit nervous when I first took it out of the machine.



However, after I sliced it open, I fell in love with my bread machine. It was so yummy.



I can't wait to make something different.

  2. Jaime, I just followed the instructions in the booklet that came with the bread maker. I did notice that they sold some bread maker recipes on Amazon.
