regular lamplight, so I hiked up the ISO. Also I noticed the light was hitting the bread hard, so I underexposed it 1 stop. Raw Conversion in CS3 did most of the work with white balance, levels, etc.
and yes I made bread man myself.

Cute! That's the first thing that honestly came to mind. :) Then comes "ta-da!" as it appears the bread man is making a grand entrance.
Looking Deeper
Yes, it's cute, clever, and all that, but there are some positive items here in the method of presentation. The positioning of objects are obviously well thought out. A nice play on angles with the basket coming across from the upper-left (nice leading line also BTW), and the cushioned furniture back coming across from the mid to upper-right. The way these lines intersect brings the viewer right into the main subject area, and quite naturally.
The technicals are all in place with nice DOF, good use of lighting, and a well focused subject. Read your notes...good use of exposure comp to handle it.
Looks like you had fun putting this together, and I certainly enjoyed taking another look at it. :-)
I really like the lines and colors of the horn of plenty and pillow. I think the paper plate spoils the image, because everything else has such nice warmth and texture. I like the lighting too.
Very nice work with the bread man! And I see you have the same china pattern I do. I also have the "good china" - the wax coated variety with designs! I use it on special occasions.
