Last week the Yale Senior & Community Center held a two-day Breadmaking class.

On day 1, the class learned the differences between store bought and homemade bread; the importance of using the right ingredients; and the benefits of using a bread machine. On day 2, the class got to sample different types of bread, while also making some of their own.

Thank you to the instructors and attendees.
