"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

This is a recipe my mom got from a local cookbook when she started baking bread to sell in New Brunswick. People here didn't consider bread "brown" unless it had molasses in it. We liked it with raisins added.
