It was okay. I loved the ease of the recipe and the lemon fragrance had a calming effect as this was a stressful week (one of the pooches of the household is sick). So I was happy with the whole experience. Will I make it again? Don’t know. I did serve it at Sunday dinner with my husband as a side bread instead of cake and it added a nice balance to the spicy dinner that I made from my potato cookbook. On Monday I melted sharp cheddar over a slice for a quick snack. Now THAT was really good. However, in the past my Bread Baking Cookbook has a great lemon bread yeast recipe that I think I might try before doing this one again. I remember that I really liked that one! And I remember that it was excellent toasted as well. Looking forward to Hungarian Shortcake!
P.S. To all bloggers who are looking for pics – I’m trying to understand this whole blogging thing! I am clumsy still at blogging and am learning the dashboard and what I can and cannot do. So I will try to get pictures up sometime. Meanwhile, when I check out everyone else’s blogs I’m really impressed. Kristine

I really like the idea of using this with savoury foods. I’m especially intrigued by the idea of melting cheese on it.
WordPress had lots of tutorials and guides. I think once you’ve got time to do a little exploring, you’ll find it’s really straightforward.

I too, am learning that blogging is not as easy as it first appears. I am hoping each post will become easier and faster. Don’t you wish WP had easier for each of their themes?
Keep up the good work.

I like that you served it as a side to a dinner 🙂
Lemon yeast bread sounds good…

You seem to have a creative streak. It would never occur to me to melt cheddar on this bread.

Mmm.. melted cheddar. I love toast with a slice of tomato, s&p, and cheddar. Heat in oven till cheese is melted. Yum. Thanks for the reminder!
