Use Yer Loaf!

I am now the proud owner of one of these little beauties, thanks to the generosity of my mum (thanks, mum). It's a fantastic all singing, all dancing bread machine. I got it last week and so far I've tried several different types of bread including, wholemeal, white, sundried tomato & parmesan and spicy fruit loaf. They have all been delicious! My goal is to never buy supermarket bread again (thereby saving a fortune - even taking into account the cost of flour and electricity) and I think it will work out fine. My only problem is going to be cutting the bread thin enough for sandwiches!

On the same day I got my bread machine, I got a surprise parcel of goodies from my lovely pal, Diane (she of The Sound of One Hand Knitting). Aren't they gorgeous? The corsage brooch is really soft and fluffy - yummm. Thanks, Diane xx
