His Daily Bread
Frodo awoke to the scent of baking bread. He took a deep breath, rejoicing in the odors of yeast and flour, treacle and honey.
“Ah--brown bread today!” he thought as he sat up. He took stock; the sun was shining; his stomach was calm and head clear. With only a mild ache to his shoulder, he found he looked forward to Rosie’s brown bread spread with sweet butter and May’s currant jam. Today, he thought as he rose and began reaching for his shirt, trousers, and braces, it is good to be a Hobbit of the Shire.
Frodo Baggins smiled.
Honey Wheat Bread

1 cup lukewarm water
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon treacle (molasses)
2 tablespoons soft butter or margarine
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup high-gluten bread flour
1 package dry yeast
Place ingredients in bread machine in order given. Set machine to “Whole Wheat” and “Light Crust.” When bread is finished, rub butter over surface of bread and slice. Excellent with currant jam!
