Personal Notes:
The story goes that a ships captain came home from sea expecting the usual home made bread to be hot and waiting for him. When he didn't find any he yelled Anna where's my damn bread. Hence the name.
This recipe was given to me by a customer when I was running my bakery so that I could supply her 2 loaves a week.
