Take THAT, modern convenience!

My bread machine died.  At least I'm pretty sure it's dead.  The kneading blade won't turn any more.

SO:

I mixed up a batch of bread dough and

Kneaded It By Hand

and

I am now on my way into the kitchen

to get two loaves of

COMPLETELY

made-by-me

bread out of the oven.

Boo-YAH.

  1. Boo-YAH, indeed! Way to go Able Baker Magpie Mommy! I bet it was delicious! Your post almost reads like a haiku. Making bread by hand is an art form (sadly, almost a lost one).

  2. Hello! from one blogger with a paltry readership to another! :) (mine is even paltri-er than yours)--I make bread, and once had a bread machine, but did not like the bread it produced. LOVE the stuff made by hand. NEVER lasts into a second day at my house.
    I even like stories about bread baking! (hmm, maybe my nerdy interests have something to do with my paltry readership...nah!) My favorite is called Bread Alone by Judith R Hendricks and spurred the creation of a real bakeries in New York of the same name--Bread Alone locations.
    Blessings and Peace!
