Sounds at least "fabulous"-- kind of a 'dessert loaf"... I will try it someday soon-- I printed out your instructions..
I make almost all my own bread-- I even grind the wheat berries-- (and put rice or other grains, all organic, in there too, along with various herbs. I can't give you a recipe, since I just kind of "go at it", and don't always use the same ingredients. It's often "stupendous", almost all the rest of the time, "fabulous", and never less than "really, really good"!-- however, it's not always the sweetest bread you've ever seen,...
As far as gardens go, we didn't do as well-- animals ate EVERYTHING; the tops off the tomatoes, peppers, rosemary, I think it was. (the latter may have been a soil problem...) Thanks again! DaveS
