Personal Notes:
We somehow only make this bread during the holidays; maybe it's because of the cranberries. But it's a pretty loaf wrapped in parchment and given as a holiday treat, and it makes the most lovely toast! (Well..almost the most lovely toast. Jeff's sourdough cranberry orange is even better...but for those of us without a pizza oven, this is a gem of a quick bread!)
