It has been raining here in San Jose, or at least it was raining. For over a week. We had a tornado watch. Its been dreary and gloomy, and I have missed the California sun. I decided to bring some sunshine into my kitchen by making lemon bread. Nothing screams sunshine like lemons.
I have several new recipe books that were given to me over the Christmas holiday, one being a Williams Sonoma baking cookbook. So I thought I would test Mr. Williams, or Mrs. Sonoma, or whoever managed to create such a name for themselves, and try their lemon bread. The recipe is pretty basic:
Cream shortening and sugar.
Add eggs.
And lemon zest.
Add dry ingredients followed by wet ingredients.
Bake for an hour.
And devour!
Congrats Mr. Williams or Mrs. Sonoma. You make a mean Lemon Bread!
**Note: Williams-Sonoma was founded by Charles E. Williams, though I am not sure this is his actual recipe.

Totally beautiful! Great job with the photos, by the way. And that's a fancy zester/microplaner you got going on there ...
And your countertop looks like granite!

I think I'm starving.
