Lovely vegetable

When I worked at starbucks (when Chris and I were first married several years ago) Chris’s favorite thing to take advantage of was the pumpkin bread. This one does not have lard in it though. . . (rumors about mass produced pastries). Here is the recipe I used, though I reduced the sugar to 2-1/3 cups rather than the 3 (absurd!) and added the pepitas on top and chopped candied ginger inside. . . oh yes, added vanilla. I can’t help it, I always end up meddling with recipes. The texture was very nice, and the spices perfect. And maybe the lucky babysitter will get one of those paper swaddled loaves (do you see the funny faces in the wrinkles and strings?)

So babysitter, you know who you are, eat this good bread and look at the pom-pom sleeves and feather explosions on this fav blog of mine. You will think they are weird, I know.
