So today I learned that I really cannot cook whatsoever. I was so proud of myself, I completely cleaned my kitchen, I mean, vacuumed, MOPPED, organized all of my little counter space that had ALOT of stuff on it. And while cleaning I got the great idea to make a loaf of homemade bread! I love my Mom's bread, so why can't I make my own in my bread machine?
Problem #1 was that it takes 3 hours to bake. 3 stinking hours. Not great when you start it around 6 pm and are hungry!!
Problem #2 If the container does not say YEAST on it, and even if you are pretty sure that it has yeast in it, and your mom just forgot to write it on the container when she gave it to you, you should check to make sure it is yeast. Otherwise two hours later, while cleaning your living room you will notice a smell. A burnt smell. A smell usually reserved for when you are making frozen pizza (yes I burn them) or hamburger helper (yes I burnt that last week).
You will be shocked, SHOCKED, to open your bread machine and see a lump of burnt bread dough..... :(
Take Two is tomorrow... We'll see how that goes.. I desperately want to WOW Emily with my freshly baked bread when I have her for lunch next week. We may have to push lunch into the later week because I have a feeling its going to take several attempts to get my bread edible..
