This is a very special pumpkin bread recipe. It comes from the “Joy of Cooking” book. The loaf can be made with any mushed squash, sweet potatoes, yams or pumpkin. What makes it truly unique is the addition of spices, nuts and dried fruit.

This sour cream coffee cake is loved by all who taste it. The nut swirl adds flavor and moisture. Perfect dessert for a weekend afternoon or a potluck.

This old-fashioned, simple plum cake is a winner at all parties. It is quick to make and always comes out right. There is no added sugar in the plums and that makes all the difference. Moist and flavorful, it will keep fresh in the fridge for up to a week.
