I have a funny feeling towards Easter, just doesn't seem to be a big holiday for me...Except: for the easter bread. Sometimes, the easter bread happens at the cape, but I usually manage to get at least a half loaf delivered and then I savor it for breakfast. (I might have even hide it from Mike in the past. Shhhh.) It is a family tradition. My nana used to make it and now donna tends to do it. SO delicious. I don't know how others do it, but, our bread - is light and flaky and a little sweet. Toast it up and a little butter. It takes a day and a half to make (rising 2 times, etc) and there is a lot of kneading involved, and it is so amazingly tasty. A whole lot of love goes into this bread.
This year, one week later than easter, Donna made the dough and we helped with the kneading this morning. We should have 3 loaves baked and ready to be savored, later tonight/tomorrow. I can't wait. Seriously. When I bite into it, I may even say "I love easter" just because of this bread.
