I'd love to take credit for the wheat bread, but I don't remember ever making that recipe. Mybe I gave it to Mom years ago??? My new wheat bread is MUCH simpler. But maybe I should try this one.
The chile is mine:)

If yours is easier then you need to share! I could use some more bread recipes (not that I make it much anymore...)
