Pumpkin Bread

Last year there weren't ANY frozen cranberries at Cole's, just cranberries soaked in apple juice....which have a totally different flavor. Like the difference between frozen peas and canned peas soaked in water....anyways. They had cranberries at Cole's this weekend!! Not fresh ones because they're out of season, but this recipe needs frozen ones anyways so HURRAY because I LOVE PUMPKIN CRANBERRY BREAD. I'm gonna make like, a basquillion loaves of a it. That's right JILLIONS.

I think Australians would call this "cake" or a "pudding"....but, by my definition, it's too dense to be a cake and not wet enough to be a pudding. SO it's bread.....'cause I'm American and that's how I roll. hahaha ::boing::boing::boing:: (me bouncing in my seat with glee)
