First bread making attempt

My personal life for the last couple of weeks have been non existent due to work. Been working down in London the last couple of weeks and spending around 3 hours a day commuting to my workplace. Usually knock off work around 9pm to 10pm. By the time I get home, it is usually time for bed.
It is a public holiday tomorrow so I thought I would have a 3 days weekend but as usual, luck wasn't
on my side and had to go in to work this morning. To suppress my disappointment, I thought I will cheer myself up by making something I haven't done before. Making my own BREAD. I prepared my bread dough last night so that I could just pop it in the oven early in the morning.
Call me crazy but I actually woke up extra early to make this. Need to get in to work by 9am so I woke up at 7am to do this. Made a multi-seeded
bread (Check out the pictures below) with roasted garlic inside. Making bread makes the whole house smell like a bakery and it was really satisfying to have fresh from the oven bread for breakfast. Warm and crusty. My bread came out looking good but the taste was disappointing. I didn't put enough salt so the taste was quite 'healthy'. But you can always fix 'healthy' bread with a little bit of good old butter/margarine. We had our bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
