    This sounds lovely, Midge. Tablescape had a question on the lemon ratio--and this sounds about right. 1 teaspoon lemon extract would give a light flavor to the crumb after baking, and the lemon zest would add another, finer little "punch" also.

    Sounds good to me--and I will put this on the "try it" list for next week and then report back in! Thanks for a goodie--Kn0x--
