Today was the day. I prepared physically and mentally . . . and this was the end result.
The bread isn't perfect looking (I haven't made bread for about 6 years), but it tastes good. Amelia enthusiastically told me that she likes my bread better than the bread with "sprinkles", ie. Sara Lee 12-grain w/ oats on top. I'm glad she liked it; I was afraid that after all of my effort, only Ken would like it.
Out of curiosity, I did some math and figured that each loaf costs approximately $.96. Not too bad, since the Sara Lee bread we buy costs about $2.50/loaf. But then I realized I hadn't figured labor into my cost . . . and that's when I decided that making bread is a labor of love . . . and there's no price for that.
