Cheryl - I also have used my breadmaker to make the dough and then popped it in a loaf pan and baked it in the oven. It turned out quite well.
Because of my back, I have done hardly any stocking up for winter. I did send Doug to the local farmer's market to get some peaches to cut up and freeze. Unfortunately, I missed the buy one half bushel, get one free sale that I caught last year so we only have a half bushel in there. If I start to feel able soon, I will go with him and see what is there on sale that we can get and freeze.
Stocking up on fruits and veggies is just another thing I missed this summer that is going to be added to my list of thngs I want to do next summer!
