lovely, but they are too heavy, they arematerial intensive, expensive and not

for the old warhorses....as with the GM slant-6 engine that would last
forever (remember Plymouth Dusters and Dodge Darts and Valiants? They were too
good).I FOUGHT hard to keep my old gas stove - but it finally bit the dust.
Ibought a new accubake convection oven - and guess what? My homemadebread is
wonderful, my cooking time is dependable, the heat is even. Ilove it. I kept my
gas cooktop though. I love hand-kneading bread too,but my arthritis doesn't
like it any more, so I use a commercial machineto help with the kneading. =20Nice
to have what you need to make good bread. Choices make life easier. To
others, using a bread machine is like making storebought bread at home.Different
strokes for different folks......Check out "The Story of Stuff" for an excellent
