Bread success!

I made bread Saturday morning. It worked out great! No holes in the middle, high and light, it even had some oven spring. I followed Ruthies ideas, although I'm still hoping she'll post her bread recipe. I cut honey down from 4 tbl to 2 and used 2 tbl olive oil. I also mixed in more flour before turning it out to knead. I do it all by hand, so I'm getting quite a workout!

But I am thrilled that it came out so well! It's slicing good, I'm using a bread slicing guide thing I picked up at Goodwill.

My partner and I are going to go to the Wal-Mart Supercenter up in Vancouver to pick up staples and some things for Thanksgiving. We don't buy meat there, we are dubious about it's quality. But from my price book, most things are cheaper at Wal-Mart, even at regular grocery stores best sale prices.
