ZUCCHINI AND APRICOT MUFFINS
If you have surplus summer squash, these cinnamony, moist, not-too-sweet whole-wheat muffins are a great place for them. They are great for the camp or school lunchbox. Dried apricots contribute lots of potassium, beta carotene and vitamin A. I used a raw brown cane sugar called muscovado for these, but you can also use turbinado, sold as Sugar in the Raw.

APRICOT BREAD
This is my most asked-for recipe. I've used it for many years, which is obvious from my recipe card that's yellowed and full of stains. The fruity appearance and taste of this easy-to-make bread blend beautifully with our warm Florida sunshine. It's always a hit whenever I serve it.
