Orange Peel Bread
This is my Grandma-Ag's orange peel bread recipe. The bread brings fond memories of my childhood, visiting Agnes Frances Primm, my Grandma-Ag. As a young adult, I tried to duplicate the recipe but couldn't. I went back and begged her for the secrets. When I asked her how long it had taken to develop the tricky recipe, she flattened my ego by telling me she'd gotten it out of a magazine years before! I like to make it for Christmas.
