Aloha Everyone! In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that they take it easy and look forward to the weekend. Can you believe we made it to Friday? We survived the week, so to celebrate let's sit back and relax. No heavy mental lifting today... just one simple little question...
Do you own a bread machine? And fess up, do you use it?
I actually have 2, both previously used. One was a hand-me-down and the other was a garage sale find. I actually use them both, and just this week I made our sandwich bread and pizza dough. I know there must be lots of them floating around, but I never hear anyone talk about them anymore. Just curious!
I have a few breads I make in it. A basic sandwich bread & a honey oat loaf. I also love to use it to prepare my dough for rolls or pizza dough. My kids require special bread recipes and the machines I have make their special bread turn out the best.
Okay, if you want more Aloha Friday fun, go to An Island Life and check out the other posts on the Linky. Have a great weekend!

I don't have a bread machine! I'd love one because growing up we always had fresh bread out of the bread maker and I LOVED it! That's great you have one and use it alot! Have a great Friday!
ReplyDeleteI almost bought one before, but I know what happens to those things... You use them for a month or so and it gets shoved to the back of the pantry. lol! I've used my mom's a few times, but it only comes out at holidays now. When I've made bread, I've just put the yeast in bags and then baked in the oven. :) Happy Friday!

We have owned a bread machine for years but I don't remember the last time we used it. Glad to know we're not the only ones!
ReplyDeleteYes, I do have one and I do like using it!

No I don't have one. Have no idea what one even looks like!
ReplyDeleteI do not have a bread machine, but I would love to buy one!
ReplyDeleteno we don't.. and i think that even if we'd have one i wouldn't use it:)
ReplyDeleteAloha!
I have two, use to use them a lot. Now I make Artisan bread it is very easy and only takes about 5 minutes to prepare and 30-40 minutes to bake.
ReplyDeleteMy Aloha Friday Link for you
I've had one for years - I used to use it more regularly, and funny you should mention it, I finally used it again last weekend. But I think I need a new one, because it didn't finish baking the bread! ACK! I have one similar to yours in the picture - that makes the loaf standing up. I'd like to get one that makes a horizontal loaf. ;)
ReplyDeleteNo, we never bought one because it takes up so much space. There were too many other items that we needed for keeping kosher at home. The other reason we never bought one is most people we knew that had, never used it much.
ReplyDeleteI have one and I have used it exactly once this year. I think I need to either start using it more or get rid of it.
ReplyDeleteI don't. I LOVE bread so I'd love to have one, but I'm not so sure if Id use it or not!
ReplyDeleteI did and yes, I did. But, then I went on the Atkins diet and had no more room for it.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Friday!

Yes, I own one that my sister gave me about a year ago. And, I'll admit, I have never used it.
ReplyDeleteI don't have one, but have bought one for my Mum and best friend (at their requests) and am not sure either are still in use!
ReplyDeleteI wish I did...LOVE home-made bread
ReplyDeleteI think they look like fun. I don't own one.
ReplyDeleteI am a faithful bread machine user. I use it a couple times a week and make all of our bread products in it. Here is a link to my Easiest White Bread Recipe EVER. http://commoncentshome.blogspot.com/2010/03/easiest-homemade-white-bread-ever.html
ReplyDeleteYes and I do use it occasionally but prefer to make it from scratch and bake it in the oven.
ReplyDeleteHappy Aloha Friday!
No I don't. I would love one though.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a mixed bag here! I do enjoy mine. I have never used a pre-made mix and find the bread machine handles really slack dough wonderfully. I make all my other breads by hand. Thanks for all the great replies!
ReplyDeleteNo I don't and I have never had one!:(Aloha
ReplyDeleteNope no bread machine here & i'm not sure why we don't own one. I love warm fresh bread right out of the oven.
