The coolest shower gift thus far as been the bread machine my grandmom got me. Unfortunately it was the only thing that couldn't be crammed into my car on the ride home from the shower a few weekends ago. This weekend my parents came up to visit and brought it up with them.


A few hours ago, I used it to make some of my grandmom's famous cinnamon buns. They came out pretty good. I still need to perfect my rolling and cutting techniques, and I haven't figured out how to make them super gooey. But the machine worked great at mixing and kneading, and doing all of the hard work.


Right now I've got some basic bread working in the machine. I can't wait to taste it!! (I'll try to get a picture before it is devoured.)
