#PhotoADayNov16 Day 7 - Cookbook Love

If anyone out there wants to start baking homemade bread, I highly recommend picking up this book. The first chapters give great info on tools, techniques, and other tidbits. I've had especially delicious results from the marble rye, brioche, sourdough, and the cover loaf - a whole wheat loaf that just might blow your mind! 🍞
