I do not know how women raised children baked bread, cooked, kept a home and raised children back in the day. My wife just laughs and laughs and laughs at me.

(59,599 posts)I recently bought a bread machine & have been making a loaf weekly, too.
Sadly, I've not found a recipe I like well enough to repeat.
Enjoy!

This is going to be a challenge and fun. Wish I could figure out how to post pictures.
If I ever get rich, I want to go to King Arthur's schools. I envy you!

(3,439 posts)My KA classes were birthday and Mother's Day presents and definitely a splurge. But I've heard their online classes are also very good. Just visiting the KA bakery and store in Vermont is a baker's fairyland and a real treat! If you get the chance, do go!
I am far from an expert on posting images, but I have used www.postimages.org with some success in the past. Hope that helps. I will be looking for pics of your baking adventures!
