as the grains of wheat...

...once scattered on the hill, were gathered into one to become THE BREAD THAT I BAKED!!!
So bread baking is something that I have been interested in for a while... Just the act of taking all of these ingredients that aren't much good by themselves like flour and oil and yeast (i used sugar and honey, too, but those are definitely good to eat by themselves) and to use your hands to mix them together and produce a loaf of bread... It's just a rewarding project. So my loaf of newly baked bread is sitting on the kitchen counter cooling. I'm anxious to cut into it and see if I did a good job. It's not a perfectly shaped loaf like the mass produced loaves you buy from a store, but I don't think I'd want that. My loaf of bread has character. There's just something really gratifying about baking. I enjoy it a lot. Not to mention that now my house smells wonderful! Fresh baked bread.... mmmmmmmm....
Good thing I have all sorts of flour and sugar and honey and yeast and oil left over so that I can keep perfecting my bread baking skills. But for now I'm going to go see if my loaf of bread is cool enough to eat. I'll get back to you on the outcome!
