Feb.2 - The Day i thought I died & went to Heaven

Story = Becca posted her whole wheat recipe on her blog . so we decided we would try it . now we did not have a Kitchen Aid Mixer . So we did not want to reduce the recipe so we went and got us a new Kitchen Aid . Which is something that both of us have wanted for a life time . The Picture only showed 6 Loafes But there was 7 before i Gobbled One up . When we went to Big John's in Pocatello to get the Gluton , The Owners wife said she uses 2 Cans of Glutin , One a Wheat Blutin and the other Grandma's Glutin , 2 Heaping teaspoons of Each, although the 7 loafes figured to cost $ 57.00 A Piece . and then we made Becca's Chicken soupe . I ate 3 Big bowls of Soupe and a Loaf of Bread , That Bread was out of this world , I had a ball making the bread , i never had used a wheat grinder , and you did not have to kneed the Bread , The Kitchen aid did all the Work , We love to Kitchen aid so much , it just might become my sleeping Pardner. you Grandkids needs to tell up old people about these new things , after you spend a life time making bread over a camp fire we need to know about the Progress of the World. All i can say Mover over Rachael Ray and Bobby Flay , Cause there is a mean lean new cook in town . and by the way becca ,, keep those Recipes coming , Both of these were Out of this World
