Pity we can't smell and taste it instead of just looking !!!! :(

Warm from the oven, covered in butter, with a hot cup of freshly made tea YUM. Blimey my mouth is actually watering here. :P

Tim, I swear I could smell freshly baked bread when I looked at your Pic. Mouth watering delicious by the look of it. Really must start making bread again! ;D busy_lizzie

Trouble with your own stuff, it gets eaten that day - so - one has to do another!!

I'm really only doing this to try out Pat's instructions on Photo Manager. = Tim

PS Thanks, Pat!

Tim do you use a Breadmaker? if so could you recommend a good make, thankyou Jackie.

tim · « **Reply #8 on:** April 26, 2004, 06:38:40 »

I don't, Jackie -
1. We have an AGA.
2. I love bashing bread.
3. I have time on my hands.
4. Machines, I believe, only make small loaves. That one is 14" long!
5. There's no room in the kitchen for one. I have to fight to keep my Magimix out! = Tim

Last year, bumped into a friend who was buying a breadmaker for her mother in law - £20 in Tescos. I persuaded hubby to buy one - perfect, wonderful, then we took it down to my mum's and forgot to bring it back. So, he bought me a new one, though this has only been used a couple of times since. Prefer the other one, but haven't got round to sticking the flour, etc in the breadmaker - maybe I could give up spending so much time here, in order to make bread :o

At that price, you could have several, working in relay? = Tim

Tim, do you use fresh yeast and if so, where do you get yours? I lurve making bread but haven't used fresh bread since my o'level domestic science days! :o

Ceri · « **Reply #12 on:** April 26, 2004, 23:16:49 »

EJ, I'm not Tim, but do make my own bread. I get my fresh yeast either from morrisons if I'm there, but if you ask nicely at Asda bakery, they give you lumps for free. I freeze it in 1oz weights and it works beautifully

Mrs Ava · « **Reply #13 on:** April 26, 2004, 23:20:39 »

Cor, thanks Ceri, I shall ask when I am in Asda in the week. ;D

p.s. didn't think you were Tim, your voice is so much higher ;)

Ceri · « **Reply #14 on:** April 27, 2004, 07:09:31 »

other than that, you couldn't tell us apart!

tim · « **Reply #15 on:** April 27, 2004, 16:59:00 »

Whoever I am, Tesco stopped doing it. The only other option is to order it from the baker & drive 4m to collect. Not my scene. = Tim

So is mine now!

I don't think there's much difference in the taste with fresh or packet yeast, I live above shops and the baker gave me some but I don't bother any more I use dried. I was given a really old bread maker because my shiny new one was rubbish and I love the thing and use it all the time, it takes exactly 4 minutes to put the ingredients in and that's it, hot crusty bread 3 hours later!
