hmmm, very simple, I may have to try this recipe sometime, does it taste good? You always post the best recipes :) I tried the hutspot (I think that was what it was called with the keilbasa, potatoes, carrots, and onions) it was great, thanks for all the great recipes :)

Well I guess it couldn't get anymore simple than this. Sounds great to make anytime. Have you tried it? Is it any good? I usually use my bread maker, but I just may have to give this a try. I'm sitting here just thinking about lunch. Now you've got me really hungry for fresh bread..hehehe

Darn, I just went out to the kitchen and was going to give it a try and I don't have enough flour. I have 5lb of whole wheat flour not self rising...lol Oh well I'm going to the grocers later.

Thanks for this recipe ElusiveButterfly! I am horrible at making bread when it comes to kneading it. This seems so simple, I'm going to try and make it tomorrow. I'm really excited, I would love to be able to make homemade bread daily for my family, but I always screw it up! Thanks again!

Yes, I want to make a loaf of homemade bread! I've been trying to make a decent loaf for years. Your recipe sounds very easy, I have written it down, and hope I will at last achieve success! I've made loaf after loaf, with no desired effect. Thanks for the recipe!

I did try this recipe, and I loved it. The outside was crusty and yummy! I think it would be awesome with spinach dip or artichoke dip! I just used it as regular bread with our supper. Next time I will try it with one of the afore mentioned dips. My first great homemade loaf of bread-at 40 years old!!! Yay!

Take your same self rising flour, and just moisten with heavy whipping cream. Knead on a floured board and cut rounds. These are great biscuits.

This sounds really good and easy. The two best things. I will have to try this as it would be pretty cheap as well. I think it's also something that my husband would also like, which is really important.

This sounds delicious. I can imagine with a good stout it would be good too.
