Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Carrot Date Nut Bread

 

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup carrots, peeled and sliced about 5
1 orange, remove seeds and cut in s
1/4 cup buttermilk
3 cup flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup pitted dates, slivered
1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped

Put carrots in heavy saucepan with 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon each
salt and sugar. Cover and simmer until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
Drain, if all moisture has not evaporated. Put orange, buttermilk,

cups of puree. Sift flour with dry ingredients except sugar. In
mixing bowl, beat eggs and beat in sugar, oil and carrot puree. Stir
in dry mixture and mix until well blended but do not beat. Stir in
dates and nuts. Spread in 2 greased and floured small loaf pans
(about 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2 inches).

Bake at 350 degrees F. 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until pick inserted
near center comes out clean. Remove from pans to wire racks. Cool
overnight before cutting. Makes 2 loaves. Source: The Zucchini and
Carrot Book by Ruth Conrad Bateman.

Judi's Notes: One cup of sugar is sufficient for this bread and I
like to add 2 T of Orange Marmalade to the batter.
