Bread Baking

For my birthday this year, I got a Kitchen Aid mixer. Love. The first order of business upon unwrapping it from the box was making bread. Tommy and I got an early start so it would be ready in time for dinner. So good with butter and jam or honey!


Making sure the dishes are clean before making a big mess


Tuscan Peasant Bread
First step complete

Waiting for the yeast to do its thing

Washing the dishes again

Scraping all the flour into the bowl

No more kneading by hand

Cheese break while the mixer does the work

Before rising

After risingBaked! And homemade strawberry jam to go with it!

A "hundred acre wood" breakfast the next day - bread with honey just like Pooh Bear :)
