I sure hope people think this recipe is mine. How very domestic goddessy of me...

And I'm definitely willing to try this recipe--it sounds much simpler than so many other bread recipes I've seen and then ran from.

Thanks for the recipe! My MIL gave me a wheat grinder for Christmas, so this will put it to good use! One question, when you say turn on the over to warm, do you just turn it to 350?

No, Jill, I turned my oven on to the lowest temperature it would go to. Which was 170. I guess some ovens have a "warm" setting.
