Happy St. Patrick's Day to all
Well, the corned beef is on the stove and the soda bread is in the oven. Making it brought me back to when I first got this recipe. My son was 4 years old and in Nursery School. On St. Patrick's Day in 1975 he came home with some soda bread and a recipe. The bread was delicious and I saved the recipe and made it for many years.
I still make that same recipe, but today, I marveled at the patience of those two teachers with a room full of busy 4 and 5 year old boys and girls. If I remember those teachers, Miss Judy and Miss Ruth, they probably would have let the children be hands on when making the bread. Oh, the patience they must have had. I thank them now, many, many years later.
Miss Judy and Miss Ruth, thank you for that delicious recipe and I can't wait until my bread is baked so I can have a piece with some butter and think of you.
