I fired up the bread machine on timed bake last night, so I had a hot, fresh loaf greeting me after my morning shave.

There is something so wholesome about fresh out of the oven bread. The aroma (my 3 1/2 year old son said upon awakening "what's that smell Daddy?" ), the texture, and the taste.

I wish I had the time to make bread the old fashioned way, but it still smells and tastes great out of the ol' bread machine!

Fresh from a baker is very nice too!
