Honey Whole Wheat Bread

This recipe was given to me by my sister. I follow the directions exactly as it reads, even setting my timer (see below) to the exact minute has instructed. It always turns out fabulous! I use white wheat and grind the flower myself. My kids love to help with this. From start to finish it takes 1.5 hours.
