"This is an adaptation of a recipe from JoAnna Lund's "A Potful of Recipes". I could never make it work quite right in the crockpot, so made some changes and make it in the oven. You can make it in a regular loaf pan, small loaf pans OR in 6 muffin cups (you will need to adjust the time for smaller pans and muffin cups). I generally make a triple batch and freeze some as it freezes well - I bake first then freeze so it's easy to have dinner on the table quickly."

I'm a wife and mother of 1 adult daughter and stepmom to 3 stepdaughters. Currently I do not work outside the home for pay but do a lot of volunteer work. I love to cook although I'm not a fancy cook - DH wouldn't appreciate it! I love to craft when I have time: beading, scrapbooking and soap making are three of my favorites. <img src="http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/my3chefs2009final-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/2009HolidayStockingSwapAMPageSticke.jpg"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/rr266/Acadia/Banners/CoffeeTeaSwap3.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg">
