Great looking pizzas. I made bread last weekend, all went well after it was thawed out.  ;) :D

Ok, Pens.  How difficult is it to make bread?  I almost always have trouble with the temp of the water for the yeast.  My loaves never rise like they should.
What temp do you usually use for the water?  Do you use regular yeast or the instant yeast?

Instant yeast doesn't need to be proofed so I use room temp water.  White Bread 101 from the King Arthur Flour Baker's Companion is incredibly easy, throw everything in the bowl - mix then knead .  Different name but this looks like the same recipe.

I always had the same problem, never could get bread to turn out like, bread.

The yeast kicked my a$$ every time.

Sonny's Sweet bread is the first bread/buns that worked for me, now I'm goin to give loaf bread a shot.

proof? yeast? water temp? I just take a frozen loaf out of the packet, thaw let rise and bake. It is soooo easy to make bread.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
You should do as Deb suggests, I am no baker, thats for sure.  :)

OU let me know how the bread turns out.
Pens, I thought you baked bread..........I know you do your own pizza crusts...don't you?
