This Christmas season, I've been reveling in the homemade, specifically, good homemade foods. I went to bed last week wanting a warm piece of bread and butter, so I woke the next morning and made bread!
The loaf came out of the bread machine in such lovely form that I took a picture! I've been making bread for a long while, since we were in Italy. (The Army sent us to Vicenza, Italy for three years!) That was a long time ago. I won't tell you how long, because it would date me! =}
In more recent years, I've been using a bread machine from Breadman called the Ultimate. They're not making my model anymore, but it's a good brand! This one has lasted ten years at least, and that's with making bread once a week on average.
I'm considering looking into sourdough and its benefits. I have a friend who is doing the same thing for her family. She bakes bread several times a week from her sourdough, so it's definitely on my radar.
Along with bread, I've made brownies and muffins for my family. I want the chance to have a baking day before Christmas this year, but I'm not sure if that will happen! I've had a rough head cold this week, so I lost a week of work!
I hope you all are having a great week before Christmas!
