I used part of the zucchini Himself grew and baked some zucchini bread. I used the recipe given to me by my neighbor, Prissy. When we first moved here 35 years ago, She gave me zucchini from her garden and her recipe for zucchini bread.
We were nearly finished with the first loaf when I remembered I needed a picture for the blog post. Prissy's recipe makes two loaves. I'm really missing the old girl because I would have called her up, told her to put the kettle on, and then brought the second loaf over to have tea with her. And now missing her even more as I look at the date. On 12. August, she would have been 95 years old. Happy Birthday, Prissy! 💐
Whatcha doin?
Happy birthday to Prissy, she sounds like she was a great neighbour. Enjoy your bread and the memories! Valerie
ReplyDeleteShe was more like a second mother than just a neighbor
DeleteThe zucchini bread looks delicious and how lovely to use your dear friends recipe and remember her - perfect 😁. Enjoy and happy midweek wishes! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteShe would have loved that I used her recipe
DeleteLooks yummy! :D
ReplyDeleteMust be. Almost all gone! 😺
DeleteWhat a lovely memory :) The bread looks delicious. It's Death Week here in Memphis, so I'm listening to Elvis music.
ReplyDeleteThe music keeps him alive
DeleteWould lovely Prissy memories.
ReplyDeleteThat bread looks delish. Hope you saved me some leftovers:)
You better get her quick. The bread is going fast!
Deleteawww....happy 95th prissy; hope the bread in heaven is as good as yours ~~~~
ReplyDeletePrissy probably told the Heavenly Bakers how to bake the bread 😺
DeleteJust got home from a busy morning running errands... whew... I used to have a zucchini bread recipe.....so good... Happy Birthday Prissy...
ReplyDeleteZucchini bread, so simple and so good.
DeleteLooks delicious 😋
ReplyDeleteIt was 😊
DeleteMaking zucchini bread is the best, especially when you grow the zucchini yourself. I have my mom's chocolate zucchini bread recipe and always think of her when I make it. I can image you miss your neighbor and sharing some tea and zucchini bread. Thanks for that story CJ.
ReplyDeleteI suppose making Prissy’s recipe keeps her alive
DeleteWhat I am doing????
ReplyDeleteI thought, YUM, seeing your pic :-)
And... would you like to share the recipe? Since I lost my job I lost my fear of the oven and could bake this! - As long as it´s not a sweet bread, that is...
Other I´ll emboss the complicated parcel Ingo made for my Niece´s Birthday :-)
It is a sweet bread, but you could cut down on the amount of sugar and you can leave out the raisins, too.
DeleteWhat a sweet way to show homage to Prissy. So nice of you to remember her this way, CJ.
ReplyDelete😊
