As I often do, I have something amazing at a restaurant, and I try to recreate it at home. Some of our family favorites have happened this way.

A cool October morning is the perfect time for this easy to make retro recipe. I remember back in the 1980's when baking quick breads in cans (yes, recycled cans that soup or vegetables came in) was all the rage for nice little Christmas gifts. I think that's the last time I baked cranberry orange bread, and I'd forgotten just how delicious it is.

My quick bread this week sets the tone for the season. If you like streusel topping, you'll love this bread down to the last nutty crumble.

Pulling a beautiful loaf of goodness out of the oven, the house filled with genuine aroma, and the anticipation of the first taste is delightful. A simple pleasure.
