A knock on the door --- and I was pleased to see Jo stopping by to drop off this pumpkin bread recipe along with a sample for us to try. She made mini-loaves last week for her office mates for Valentine's Day, and was telling me how good this recipe is! So, I encouraged her to contribute it to the blog. (Anyone who contributes to the blog this year gets a book next year, did I mention that?!?)
It's one of those hand-me-down family recipes --- short on directions, but the combination of ingredients is just right.
