"This is my favourite bread machine bread. It makes a 1 lb loaf. The original came from Bread Machine Magic which called for macadamia nuts but since I can't find those here I have always use pecans or almonds. If you can get macadamia nuts go ahead and use them. I will always wonder what this bread would be like with them. I sometimes use oil in place of the butter or margarine but you may need an additional tbsp or 2 of flour. This bread is wonderful toasted and I also love it for a cheese sandwich!"

I love food and cooking and find that I all too often don't have as much time to spend in the kitchen as I'd like. I long for a new updated kitchen with a functional pantry that will allow me to actually spend productive time in the kitchen rather than spend it forever rooting around in cupboards to find some lost important ingredient. I love to surf the 'net to look for new recipes and food ideas and lunch hours at my day job (crop diagnostician) are often used for just that. Other than kitchen stuff my hobbies are gardening, quilting and reading.
