what kind of bread?

can you smell the bread yet?

it's basic white, 1lb. The machine died after the kneading, so it's rising (I hope) then I'll bake it. No aroma yet!

it tastes great! A bit crunchy, could have come out 5 min earlier. But I feel very pioneer-y, baking my own bread.

I made bread about two weeks ago (all by hand) - everything was good until...I split it half getting out of the pan

oh no! I'm sure it still tasted good though, even if you didn't get full marks for presentation.

you are right - the Amish White Bread did have full marks for flavour.
