Food testing

Whew, I have been gone for a while. The holidays (plus my birthday) have kept me from posting here. I know I promised information about leftover turkey, but now that will have to wait.

For Christmas, I received a bread machine. Along with this machine, Brian has discovered the love of making bread using just the mixer. So far, I have not made a loaf of bread in the machine that I love. Some are ok, but really, only one has turned out pretty good so far. On the other hand, Brian has been baking up a storm using that stand mixer.

Standing Mixer breads

*Cinnamon swirl bread (no raisins!)
Wild Rice Bread
*Alton Brown recipe that has been altered to include herbs
bagels
French loaf
Italian loaf
Hawaii Sweet Bread

*Ones we have transcribed to email to people if they wish.

So my question to you: What recipes have you been successful with in a bread machine? I am looking for the perfect everyday bread recipe for the machine.
