I'm not an expert, but I'm glad to share my "old faithfuls."  Here are the
recipes I keep posted on my refrigerator door.  The first ones are from the
book that came with my Oster bread machine and some are from (or adapted
from) the Donna Rathmell German books.  Of the two from my old faithful list
that I adapted -- the granola date bread and the poi bread -- I deleted the
latter because I'm sure most of you don't have access to fresh poi.  If you
do and you're interested, please let me know so I can send you this recipe
as it's a favorite with the folks at work.

Unless otherwise noted, the recipes are for 2-lb. loaves.
