A Plump Impostor

AJ Cronin called Marjorie a plump impostor. He was the author of The Keys of the Kingdom. According to her, he questioned her ability to go off into the backwoods with a Dutch oven and emerge with " an Emily Post dinner for twelve. She said, " if this brutal description were true it would be because of Southern hot breads."

This A.M. I started off the B&B breakfast with Southern Pecan bread. This was not a sweet bread. It was a white bread, bread machine receipe that I adapted. I use a white bread receipe and substitute 1/4 cup of pecan meal for the flour. The effect is wonderful. Folks wake up smelling hot bread which can be used as a transport device for slabs of butter and spoonfuls of calamondine jelly. Oh, excellent.
