verbicide | mmm bread

I feel a little crazy, but I think I'm going to buy a bread machine. Yes, a bread machine. That item that everyone gets on their wedding registry list, but no one uses. Though I used to once work as a nanny for this couple who made a loaf every other day.

I've always wanted one. And I think I would actually use it. So, once this idea popped into my head, I went to look on Amazon, and this bread machine is on sale for like $60 (from $140) and the reviews for it are only good.

I think it's going to be too tempting to pass up. I wonder if I can make half-loaves. One of my biggest bread complaints is that I can never get through a loaf before it rots. Also, I've tried kneading my own bread and I rather hate it. So I'm never going to be a home-made bread maker in any other way.
