Sue's Diner: Irish Soda Bread

As Timothy said, 2025 came into our lives like a wrecking ball, and we're still ducking and picking up the pieces.

In the meantime, we forgot to post and bake the BryonySeries version of Irish Soda Bread in time for Calkins Day on February 13.

What is Calkins Day? Here is a post that gives the basics.

Our recipe for Irish soda bread is featured in the BryonySeries cookbook Memories in the Kitchen: Bites and Nibbles from "Bryony," . 

That cookbook is a permanent fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will and Grundy Counties and features all the recipes referenced in the novel Bryony. 

But just because we missed baking and then sharing Irish Soda Bread with you for Calkins Day doesn't mean we still can't bake and post and share.

Irish Soda Bread is delicious for St. Patrick's Day, which is rapidly approaching - but not so rapidly that you won't have time to perfect this very delicious bread.

You may try the recipe for Irish soda bread on the Sue's Diner page on the BryonySeries website. 

But try the recipe this week. It will be gone some time next week. A new recipe will take it's place.

If you have any troubleshooting questions or comments, email us at bryonyseries@gmail.com. 

By the way, Sue's Diner is only real in the BryonySeries world. But didn't Timothy do a great job making the page look like a real menu at a vintage diner?

Here is the full diner page: bryonyseries.com/sue-s-diner. You can't really order, of course (wouldn't it be great if you could?).
