Personal Notes:
My grandma Sanborn made this bread often. I remember loving it! I remember that she baked it in empty cans, instead of pans. Therefore it was round.I remember we always buttered the bread.

I'm sorry to say that I have never tried this recipe. I think I'm afraid I would mess it up. I don't want to be the one to destroy the memory. I'm going to wait for my sister Shari to try it, and tell me it works.
