PUMPKIN BREAD
This is a delicacy among my dads side of the family and I understand why. Mimi typically gives everyone a loaf of her famous pumpkin bread and my dad is always the first to eat it all. To help the bread moisten naturally, Mimi says to keep it wrapped in saran wrap for 24 hours. Mimi enjoys a slice of pumpkin bread microwaved with butter for breakfast.
