St. Hollywood gives us one method, with a variation.  While the bread 
is cooking, the one doing the bread-making starts singing and those 
present join in, singing harmony.  The variation, not as acceptable, 
since it is considered "country", is for everyone present to join 
arms, dance around the table, singing, while the bread is cooking.

However, as Lynda notes, THE preferred way to show appreciation is to 
sit at the table and eat to one's heart's content.  Purring is automatic.
