Wife and i made some bread

Bread is fun to make and eat. Here are some pictures.

Bread makes you fat, so my suggestion is as follows:

Buy a 2 lb bag of all-purpose flower, and seriously don't buy any bigger.
Otherwise, you will end up making a bunch of bread and you will gain 14 lbs guaranteed.

Anyway, recipe (as stolen off my buddy Evan Santiago) is as follows:

Stuff you need:
- 1.5 tb Quick-rise yeast (i used this)
- 2 lb bag of of all-purpose flour (6.5 cups)
- 1.5 tb salt
- 3 cups water
- butter
- a lil canola oil
- bread pan. Forgot what size ours is. It's like the size of a shoe.

1. Yeast + salt + water into bowl. Let it sit 5min, or until it bubbles.
2. Throw in the flour. Grease up a fork with some canola oil and mix it all up. Mix it real good.
3. Cover your dough (leave a crack). Let your dough sit for an hour.
4. Preheat oven to 450, bake for 35min.
5. Let the bread cool for a few min and cut it with a serrated knife. Don't push on it, saw it downnn.
6. Eat your bread, but not all of it, cuz you'll get fat.
7. Bake the second batch of dough, but give it all away. Don't be a fatty.
