"You'll need all the treasures of the earth at your disposal, if you have such magnificent plans. If you are going to undertake so much, then good-by to bread-making and Bridget. And that reminds me to tell you, children, Bridget is going home, the last of next week." "Next week?" said Mrs. Adams. "What is that for? Her year isn't over."
You wouldn't do it when you went back." "I would! Well, of course, I might have difficulty in but mother wants me to be strong; she's always fussing about it because I can't endure the round of society things she says any girl ought to and enjoy. If you thought bread-making would really help " "It would be a drop in the bucket of exercise you ought to take."
Should the water which is used in the house be hard, and any washing done at home, they should be place in a coarse cloth over a tub, and water poured over them several times to make lye, which softens the water, and saves soap much more than soda, and is likewise better for the linen. The brick oven will often prove a source of great convenience, independent of bread-making.
Perhaps they think that these last watch over their bread-making. It was thus that the ancients believed that the dryads, hamadryads, satyrs, pans, nereids, watched over the fountains, forests, and seas, attributing to each force in nature a presiding divinity. The islanders of Hispaniola even believe that the zemes respond to their wishes when they invoke them.
"All the baking, washing, ironing, bread-making, and cleaning is done by electricity.

He paused to watch the effect of his words. "'Tain't much like the way you and me are used to," he grinned. "No."
Thus on a field or two, enough flax is grown with which to spin linen for home use, enough wheat and Indian corn for the year's bread-making, maize being mixed with wheaten flour; again, pigs and poultry are reared for domestic consumption expenditure being reduced to the minimum. Coffee is a luxury seldom indulged in, a few drink home- grown wine, but all are large milk-drinkers.
Traveling for pleasure stopped abruptly, but as the road that passed the inn was one of the direct routes to the Front, it still had many hasty calls upon its hospitality. Now, bread-making in France is a science, the work of the expert, not of the casual housewife.
She tried to get a hold on Ellen through Arthur Alce. "Arthur, it's your duty to see Ellen don't leave the bread-making to that cook-gal of hers. I never heard of such a notion her laying on the sofa while the gal wastes coal and flour." ... "Arthur, Ellen needs a new churn let her get a Wallis.
I informed him that all the profs at Siwash went armed, and that the course of study consisted of mining, draw poker, shooting from the hip, broncho-busting, sheep-shearing, History of Art, bread-making and Evidences of Christianity." "Did he admit by that time that you were a good, free-handed liar?" I asked.
