This is my second really good batch of bread. Yeah!! I was thinking that I always post about my kids and I thought, what do I do all day? Take care of kids. But I do have other interests, I just never write or post about them. Thus the picture of bread. Sean totally surprised me (which is hard to do) with a Bosch mixer and a wheat grinder for Christmas. I couldn't believe he spent so much on ME! I had been bugging him a couple years ago that if we have all this wheat, we should have wheat grinder (makes sense). I was into making bread at the time. Then I had some disasterous loafs and I couldn't bring myself to make it again. So when Sean got the mixer for me I figured I better use it. We have enjoyed homemade whole wheat bread the last couple weeks. Thanks to my cousin's wife, Carmen, who gave me a fool-proof recipe for wheat bread, my bread has come out nicely. It is not crumbley or heavy (problems I have had in the past) and it makes great sandwiches. I have been thrilled and it is not even that hard. So there it is, I am trying to be domestic. See Mom, even if I can't sew, I can make bread.Sunday, February 1, 2009

I am so darn proud of you you are a domestic goddess!! I have been bugging Ted forever to get me a bosch too. Well Valentine's and Mother's Day is coming up I better start dropping some more hints right?? Alright good job way to go!!
The bread looks yummy...just wondering if you would share that fool-proof recipe? I am so happy to see a Rebecca post, I think I need to have a Jenny post...you have inspired me. Now I just need to stage something good to post about, hehe.
so you are either posting the recipe of bringing it with you, right???? because it looks fantastic. and who doesn't want to tackle the holy grail of baking, which is a nice, light wheat loaf? your mother should be proud.:)
