We were very much looking forward to bread week! We eat a lot of bread in our house, I bake bread anywhere between 2-6 times a week.

But now Rich is eating it again and I am totally addicted to bread making. I had Chloe as my little helper this week, click here to see how we got on.

I have never made garibaldi biscuit so we were looking forward to trying them out. Click here to see how we got on.
