[Blindtlk] bread!

[Judy Jones]

Oh, yes!!

The easiest thing to do is to buy the varieties of frozen bread or roll 
dough at your grocery store and go according to directions.

People have been making bread long before breadmakers, so you can definitely 
do this.  I believe there are bread cookbooks either in Bookshare or with 
the NLS  library.  If you subscribe to the BARD digital books, you may get 
cookbooks with bread and roll recipes there.

Also try recipes.com or cooks.com and do a search for bread recipes.  Follow 
the directions in the recipes exactly, as you are dealing with yeast and 
want your bread to rise, but don't be afraid of making mistakes, either. 
I've had bread recipes flop, and I'll bet everyone else who makes it has, 
too.

Best wishes, and have fun!!

Judy
