My oven is fixed!!! Hear the birds singing?? Oh no, that is just my kiddos wanting brownies, hee hee. I decided to celebrate my oven's return by baking like a mad woman.

You can only eat fresh fruit and have hot tea so many mornings in a row. This is a pretty good raisin bread if you ask me. Ask Ransome and he will tell you raisins are from the devil, funny kid he is. If you are a lover of raisin bread, bake this and then toast it and slather it with some butter. This is
