on a roll

'Good bread is the most fundamentally satisfying of all foods; and good bread with fresh butter, the greatest of feasts.'            
                                                  - James Beard


You know how a while back I confessed I'd never really made a pie crust? Bread is sort of the same story. I've made a few attempts, but since I moved out of my parents' home - hence away from the bread machine - the one or two loaves of bread I tried making just seemed to fall flat (literally). Maybe it was old yeast, maybe impatience in kneading... whatever the case, I kind of let bread-making fall away from my skill set. 


Of course, there's nothing better than a freshly baked loaf of bread or batch of rolls just out of the oven.
