~I start checking the bread at about 45 minutes so it doesn't over cook.

Bread Pans (purchase at Sur La Table) You probably want to spend a bit more and get nice bread pans. It makes a difference in the cooking. These work very well.
Paper Loaf Bread Pans (purchase at Sur La Table) These are such a neat and fancy way to gift breads, other than the typical tin loaf pans. I haven't used them yet, but am going to.
Madagascar Vanilla (purchase at Chefs Catalog) Of all the vanilla's I've used this is my favorite. Once you've tried it you won't go back!
