Our Bread

I was truly impressed with the results of our bread making yesterday. My friend wanted to learn to bake bread. We made two loaves of bread a couple of weeks ago in my kitchen and she was surprised at how easy it is to do. Patsy's friend, Pat, used five pounds of flour and made seven loaves of bread at a time. But Pat always talked as though it was a really difficult process to make bread and she would teach her but it would be hard for my friend to learn it. But she died before they got to the lesson.

After our initial bread making foray, my friend wanted to make four loaves of bread in her own kitchen. I took the yeast and my three bread pans to her place. She had one pan of her own.

When I left, my friend took a loaf of bread to Pat's husband, Dick. He was really happy to get the homemade bread. He gave her three of his wife's bread pans, so now she doesn't really have to buy bread pans, or borrow mine. She can bake bread on her own.

I love being a teacher when the results turn out like this!
