My Mother’s Pumpkin Bread

December 14, 2018

Happy Friday!  I can’t believe that Christmas is only 11 days away! I am horribly unprepared this year.  I have just begun shopping, nothing is wrapped yet, & we have holiday parties almost every night.  I only managed to get the inside of the house decorated, the outside decorations & lights are still in boxes in the living room.  Does anyone else have years where nothing seems to come together?  This is my favorite time of year & I’ve decided to just embrace the chaos & enjoy the time with friends, family, & co-workers. 

We had our annual Rotary Holiday Potluck this week & I made my mother’s pumpkin bread for it.  Pumpkin bread was a holiday staple around my house when I was growing up & I still love it when my mom makes a few extra loaves for me.  This recipe easy to make (if I can make it, anyone can), travels well, & is always a hit at parties.  You can’t beat that for a holiday recipe!
