Rarely. I've make potato scones to go with simple soup and salad
dinners. I must admit that beyond a little hard crusty on a bread plate,
eaten sparingly and buttered one bite at a time, I was raised to think a
slice of white bread, all buttered, in the left hand, alternating with
bites from a fork in the right hand was the sign of someone who was, in
my mother's words "Yanked up rather than brought up", i.e. low class.
My husband, raised in grubby poverty, ignorance, and let to run wild in
the boonies, does just that. I've learned to look the other way, and
he's learned not to do it with company. Twas a trial for both of us,
however.
Making bread, however, is a consistant joy to me.
