Milk bread

 I think making bread is very good when you have stress, haha, as you can knead the dough as much as you want.

 The first time that I made bread (it's a very long, long and long time ago), I didn't know how to knead the bread dough by hand, and I pressed it too gently, I used almost 30 minutes for kneading it and didn't get the result that I wanted ^^"
But now, I know that I can put all my strength and hand knead become so much fun, hehe. I'm still busy but I try to find enough time to play, and yes my kitchen is my playground. Walk into the kitchen, mix the ingredients together, and start kneading, and all my stress is gone!!! 
This time is a simple soft and fragrance bread, that's packed with milk and vanilla, and it's very to knead by hand too. 
Serve it plain or use it to make a sweet sandwich or French toast is my recommendation!
