it's friday! have a recipe

recently had the fortune of learning a new poppyseed bread/cake. friend & hero in the kitchen christy bequeathed the recipe to me & i feel honored- apparently it's a longtime family favorite. which makes sense because i brought some to the office & the co-workers couldn't get the recipe fast enough. and christy has allowed it to be passed on...

2 c unsifted flour
1 t salt
1 T baking powder
1 1/2 c sugar
1 T poppy seeds

2 eggs
3/4 c oil
1 c milk
1 t each of almond, vanilla

mix dry ingredients. combine other ingredients in separate bowl, then add to dry. bake in greased loaf pan 1 hr at 350.

this is where it gets funnn! leave bread in pan, & while still warm, drizzle over the following:

1 T oj concentrate
1 T water
6 T sugar
1/4 t each almond, vanilla

then try not to eat the whole loaf in one sitting. and good luck!
