THE BREAD MAKER

I've made a few, very good purchases in 2007: mini speakers for my iPod (that work fabulously), an elliptical machine (so I have no excuse not to exercise as it stands a meter from my bed), a funky wrought iron lamp (that I have yet to use as we have not yet refurbished our "much in need of refurbishing" home), a new bed (thank god as the old one was swallowing me up!), etc...

BUT quite possibly my favorite purchase was our Severin Bread Maker (retail 89,99 Euros). Who knew making bread would be so easy?! All you have to do is put the ingredients inside, choose the bread you are making and set the time and "ta-da", fresh bread!

And for the "purists" out there, you cannot tell me by not kneading the dough with my own two hands makes it an less homemade than yours or grandmas. Take a look...


Our favorite is the 7 grain whole wheat with sunflower seeds. Very healthy, very delicious. Even Lucy loves it...
Ok, done showing off. Just love the machine and what it makes...BUON APPETITO!
