I made bread on Monday night (have recently dusted off the free bread maker that I got and aim to not buy any rubbish shop bread)!! Will be doing another loaf tonight if I have enough bread flour, although sadly I think I need some more from my Al*i shop tomorrow!
I have some cooking apples and frozen rhubarb so will part cook the apples and freeze what I don't need for later and make a little crumble for Friday night Christmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:
