First loaf! Had a trial run of the breadmaker today (went out specially to buy ingredients and then found I had an almost full set at home from my last attempts at hand-making it!) It's a mini breadmaker which is designed to take up less space, and makes a smallish square loaf (about the size of half a normal loaf of bread) but it does have a setting for a bigger loaf (I think small and often and fresh is the way forward!)




Anyway, here it is sitting in its tub:

And here, if the upload gods be willing, is the finished loaf, all warm and scrumptious:

So I do hereby pledge to make all my own bread from now on, and make some mighty hearty sandwiches from it too! It also has a "dough" setting so I'll be able to make pizza again (lacking an airing cupboard which is essential for all dough-related activities)....
