The last post of garden week will not be a savory one, but a sweet one. A sweet, delicious, moist bread recipe. I found this recipe when I was in high school. It was in one of those books that we sold as a fundraiser where parents all contributed recipes. [[I think I have 4 or 5 copies]] I probably filled my recipe book selling quota by selling one to every member of my family. I'm not positive, it just really sounds like something I would do.
Over the years I have adapted the recipe some, to make it my own. By that I mean I added some nutmeg and cloves, because there is no point buying that expensive little can just to make gingerbread men every year.
Long story short, this recipe makes 2 loaves of the most delicious zucchini bread.
