The bread is still warm in these photos because Grumpy couldn't wait to have it cut into so he could EAT IT. He promptly took 3 pieces of the bread, buttered it, then sat in his recliner to enjoy. :o)
Below is the email with the recipe. I am adding some instruction as this recipe came to me as many of my grandmother (and mother's!) recipes do. With ingredients but no instruction! ;o) Thank you Ed for taking the time to send me the emails & recipe! I appreciate knowing you are out there reading my blog! I didn't have the Bogg's cranberry liquor to add - but I sure wish I did have because it sounds like a great addition to the recipe!
Cranberry Bread
I mixed the dry ingredients (flour through baking powder). When I measured the flour I used the spoon & sweep method. I then blended the wet ingredients (egg through orange juice) together well and then carefully mixed the dry (including the cranberries and walnuts)into the wet ingredients until just moist. Baked as instructed.

Tell Grumpy I would butter mine too. 😉
