Add dry ingredients and beat 1-2 minutes. Pour into prepared loaf pans. Bake for 1 hour. While bread is baking, mix together ingredients to make glaze.

Personal Notes:
This one makes me think of Mom baking at Christmas. As I recall, Curt really liked it - his name is on my recipe. Now my kids also love it. It does call for almond extract. However, I think it could easily be changed to lemon extract, which would be really good, too. You would just need to adjust the glaze, and replace the orange juice with another liquid.
