Is Store Bought Bread Worth The Calories?
I have decided No. So, this is my new past time, making bread. Plus, isn't it healthier anyway? I used to make homemade bread for a treat every now and then when we had soup for dinner. Now, it has become our staple. So far, so good, I have not bought bread in 2 weeks now. The kids still think it's some great treat though and I have been making bread constantly. Is this how I want to spend my time? I'm still not sure on that one. I would like to double the recipe and see if I freeze half of it, is frozen homemade bread worth it? I have not experimented with this yet. So, it's all a work in progress.

It looks yummy and I bet it tastes yummy...but it also looks like a lot of work! Freezing some would make sense to me...but I'm not a baking bread expert, so you might not want my input.
Can I come over for some of that bread? I can almost smell it. Your kids are so lucky to have such a great mom. I have decided that the only "store-bought" bread that is worth the calories is Great Harvest - so that's what I buy (with the exception of some sourdough now & then). Baking my own bread would certainly be a lot more economical!
Wow. I am impressed. I don't have the patience to let it rise. Thats a pretty big project. We use our bread machine about once a week or once every two weeks. Its yummy, but its cool you know the old school way. Some day I want to make a loaf of bread that is baked on a big pizza stone with now bread pan. I used to buy bread like that in Portland all the time. Sometimes I miss it.
yum!!! our(your)bread is the best!!!
