Baking Bread!!

I don't know why I have the need to learn to bake homemade bread from scratch. I was sitting with my son eating toast with peanut butter on it and it came to me that I should learn to make bread. Maybe I am getting brainwashed from Obamacare and childhood obesity that I need to make healthier choices for my family and what better way to begin is to make my own bread. Why not? It's not like I don't have other things to do like learn about Finance, raise my children, keep my house from imploding and have some time for myself. Ha..I think why not?

I think my hubby will flip when I tell him I'm buying bread pans. I can hear him asking me why I want to buy bread pans and then me telling him I want to learn to make homemade bread. He'll think I've gone over the edge to insanity. I tried making my own jewelry and I loved it but my poor hands can't handle it and they cramp up and my hands hurt for days. It wasn't pretty so my love to make bead jewelry ended before it started. So now I'm on to learning to bake bread and most likely I won't be able too again because of my hands cramping up and then I'll end up getting a bread maker. See how it works, I just want a bread machine but I can't come out and ask for one. I have to make sure my hubby thinks he was the clever one and suggests we should get a bread maker. If I ask for one then it's spending money we don't have but when it comes from the hubby it's an investment like the TV, Computers, Lawn tools etc..all investments!! In the end I win!! It's always about me!! Ha ha!!

So now I have to find some simple recipes for bread. I really love eating bread that just came out of the oven..with butter on it. I'm in heaven just thinking about it. Go live life and enjoy!!! Take care, Peace!!
