Oil large bowl and set aside. Grease and flour two 9x5 loaf pans. Pour warm water into cup. Sprinkle with yeast and let stand until dissolved, about 5 minutes.

Combine milk, sugar, orange, lemon, eggs, margarine, salt and yeast mixture in another large bowl and beat well. Gradually blend in enough flour to form workable dough. Turn out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 15 minutes. Knead in raisins, candied fruit, peels and nuts. Place dough in oiled bowl, turning to coat all surfaces. Cover with damp towel. Let stand in warm draft-free area until doubled, about 45 minutes.

Personal Notes:
I found this recipe in my mother's recipe box, but I have no idea where she got it. I am told you can use dried mixed fruits rather than candied if you prefer.
