Every year I try to bake Easter bread. Some years I bake more then other years --this year I stopped at eight. These breads are made from a sweet dough and braided around uncooked eggs. Each braid has a filling of almond, orange peel and chocolate. Some years I add anise seeds also. I'll bring some with me on Easter day and give some out to friends sooner. If I get my energy back I'll drizzle a simple confectionery sugar icing on them. I'll probaby eat one myself with sweet butter for breakfast over the next few days. It's a good thing that we are starting Weight Watchers at my school on April 17th!

Have a very Happy Easter Frances! The bread looks so good a shame I can't eat bread right now, LOL. We need to get us soapers together again soon.
Oh Frances, those breads look so very yummy! You certainly are an industrious person! Oh, I recently found out that there is a terrific yarn shop up in Rochester! I have such a hankering to knit up an Aran style sweater. I was on a blog that had such a lovely sweater started on it....got my knitting blood flowing. Must be that wee bit o' Irish from my great grandmother!!!
