Loved your story about your mom's bread. Although we rarely had home-baked bread, we always had "bakery" bread so the mass-marketed loaves were a treat for us too. So squishy! Can't imagine eating "Wonder Bread" today. And, we longed for margarine because we never had anything but butter. Sigh. What a deprived childhood. Can't wait to try this with the left-over dried cherries and apricots from the lovely Golden Fruitcake recipe. Thanks again for another wonderful recipe. Happy New Year.
