Nice tasting bread, especially when spread with a homemade fruity spread (as in a cranberry one)! I did cut the recipe in half & gifted one loaf to a neighbor couple! Absolutely nothing like homemade bread for combort food! [Tagged, made & reviewed just for the 'HALIBUT!']
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Hi, my name is Rhonda.
I've been happily married for 11 years and have 2 beautiful boys, ages 10 and 3.
I became a stay at home mom about a year ago. So naturally I started cooking better meals again. No more hamburger helper and canned spagetti sauce (yuck). I love to cook and try new recipes out. I'm constantly browzing through here, looking for new and interesting recipes, as well as practical ones.
Hubby is a great cook and likes to try new things also, but he works so the cooking falls to me most times. I don't mind, I mean he's working all day, I don't expect him to cook when he gets home. Plus he did all the cooking a few years back when our roles were reversed. I swear he kept the house cleaner than I did. lol
Hubby and I love hot and spicy foods. Alot of mexican, chinese, and our own concoctions. Our kids like more traditional dishes , although our oldest will try anything he hasn't tasted yet.
I haven't posted alot of recipes yet as I am still trying to write them down. Alot of what we cook is by taste so it makes it hard to post.
I'm trying to make sense of hubby's spaghetti sauce but he makes it differently every time.
Thank you for visiting my page, and have a great day.
Rhonda
