To Linda:
On looking over your recipe, Linda, I would say that the proportion of 
flour to liquid is high, making a stiffer, drier dough.  The solution to 
your problem is to increase the liquid, or decrease the flour.  I'd start 
by adding 1/4 cup more water, or decreasing the flour by 1/4 cup or more, 
and see what that produces. I don't own a bread machine, so I can't tell 
you how these quantities will bake up.  They would work in my mixer and 
oven, tho.

Good Luck, Linda!
