The bread loaf that ate Pittsburgh

My new sunday routine is to do some baking, usually a loaf of bread in the breadmaker. ( I know this doesn't qualify as real baking, but hey, I'm trying)
Yesterday, I went to just make some plain white bread. I didn't realize that I had grabbed a packet of quick-rising yeast instead of the normal type when I was adding ingredients. I found out a couple hours later when the lid of the maker was being forced open by the loaf. I left it in there longer than usual to ensure that the top would at least resemble bread instead of uncooked dough. This thing was about twice as tall as a normal loaf of bread...and it was very tasty alongside a pot roast and rice for dinner.
