a bread maker. i used to bake a fair bit of bread in our last house because my oven was reliable, unlike the one we currently have to use. on many of the blogs i read, people generally use a bread maker instead of the oven. i can understand that if you weren't cooking up a storm in the oven, it would be far more energy efficient to use this nifty little electrical appliance. the convenience factor also impresses me, plus the limited mess (i'm great at getting dough & flour everywhere, especially when making pasta dough). we currently make all our own pasta, pizza & flat bread doughs, but have not had the time to whip up a loaf of bread every 2nd or 3rd day (depending on how fast we go through it).
so, what do i get? they come in all sorts of sizes, with different functions, so i'm getting a little baffled trying to disect the important vs the non important features. help would certainly be appreciated.
i'm excited already at the prospect of all the different seed & nut variations i can make...plus the smell of fresh bread!! oh yum!! need to do more research first though before i can convince hubby.

I have a Breville bread maker and its great... I can't tolerate much wheat so I use spelt flour in my bread maker to make yummy breads and pizza dough. Every now and then I still like to make my own bread and bake it in the oven (it turns out slightly different) but a bread maker is definately very handy (and the smell of fresh bread is awesome!)
