Cozy, drizzly, grey, with green grass growing lush like a prairie, and daffodils and tulips springing up on street corners and planters, in hedges -- everywhere! That's what Spring has been like in the Pacific Northwest this year. Some people complain -- and, it's true, endless variations on grey sky can put a damper on what should be a refreshing and invigorating time of year.
Myself, I love the grey, the cold, the drizzly -- and it's a great opportunity to bake some bread!
I commenced with a Glutino white bread mix ("favorite sandwich bread"); used the cinnamon-raisin variation. Only -- and if you've followed my site you've seen me do this before -- I deviated just a bit and used milk instead of water, and cranberries instead of raisins. And, guess what? It turned out fine! In fact, it was a majorly poofy loaf that rose so high it nearly touched the glass viewing window of the breadmaker (a Breadman Pro with the gluten free setting).
