The day has arrived...

So today as I stood in the kitchen making bread in my brand-spanking-new Bosch mixer that Santa brought me, I couldn't figure out if I should laugh or cry that I've turned into my mother. The day has arrived.

-------Update------
That thing rocks! My bread is awesome - even the kids and John noticed it and we ate an entire loaf for lunch today. I finally feel redeemed for the past 6 years of making bread and it being so-so - burnt on the outside and doughy in the middle- it wasn't just my fault as a crummy bread maker after all! Now we'll all gain 15 lbs instead of losing 15 from eating all these dang carbs. Yum!

I had that same moment today - except mine was because I was singing primary songs to my girls (with much enthusiasm) while they pretended not to know me. :-) I told Craig, "Wow, I've turned into my mom!" and he said, "there are worse people to be."

I don't think the bread is the key element here...what did you put *on* it? Hmmm?? :-)

Mmmmm. Although I can't imagine your bread being any yummier. I thought it was pretty good already. :-)

Your post made me laugh- ah, your battle for the bosch! I've had great luck with bread from the beginning- but then, I've had a bosch from the beginning too. Happy eating!
