I think it's pretty obvious by now that I love to cook. My Christmas list is as follows (plus my entire favourites list,
hehehe):
- salad spinner
- bread maker
- pasta maker
- flat whisk
- cast iron dutch oven
- Kitchenaid mixer
Clearly, I like preparing food.

This past weekend, Pat and I went to stay the night at his Aunt's and Uncle's place - they have an enormous, beautiful house and are super nice people. I love visiting with them, they're like our adoptive godparents. Anyway, while I was there, I was able to scratch one item off my Christmas list:
They gave me a bread maker!!! It was a wedding gift, and in 15 years, they've never used it. So now this near-vintage machine is
all mine!! I was so excited, I made my first loaf Monday night. It was a simple white bread:

It was delicious! I was gnawing on my knuckles because it smelled so good while baking! The loaf was gone by lunchtime Tuesday, so I made another loaf last night, this time a sweet bread. A heavier bread, not as tasty, but still good. I can't wait to try all the other recipes in my recipe book - whole wheat is up next!
I love my bread maker!

NICE! I've been wanting a breadmaker for awhile. Perhaps I should ask Santa for one.
