We eat a lot...

The kids and I made hamburger buns, hot dog buns, rolls, and five loaves of bread (and Eli, Scout, and Riley made their own creations with cinnamon chips), and the above will last us about six days. The good news is, it cost at most five dollars to make it all! How you ask? Grind your own wheat, and buy in bulk so you can get things wholesale.

Any tips on making it taste light and fluffy like store bought bread? I have tried, without success, to make bread and my jaw gets tired chewing. So, how are your buns? Hot dog and hamburger that is.

My mercy!! Donna- you are Susie Homemaker!! You need to write a book or something explaining to us un-organized folks how it can be done with a quiver full of children! :o) The bread looks divine, and yes, please give us some tips on how to make it light and fluffy!
