These all looked so good to me! I made the Split-Top Butter loaf and it was
great! (Hubby and I ate 1/2 of a loaf before it had totally cooled!). The
next time I make it, I'm going to add some whole wheat flour to see how it
does. The next one I want to try is the Marbled Pumpernickel Rye (I love
making croutons out of the store bought stuff!)
