Christmas Bread Pt. 11

We are now down to three completely unbaked loaves and the cinnamon rolls that need to go in the oven. Of course, none of this can go in the oven until the two half-baked loaves presently in the oven are removed.

As bowls and pans have been emptied or used we have been washing them. So even though we will have made about 20 loaves of bread, rum ball, and hummus in the kitchen it isn't too much of a mess.

For those of you who are curious, we made about 12 batches of the recipe. It seems likely that next year we won't knowingly make a similar quantity. I suspect that about 8 batches worth of dough would be sufficient.
