Hello Bonita and Raymond,
I hope you had a good holiday and Happy New Year! I have put off watching this video. Sometimes I just need to be all cozy in my house to savour what delicious recipe you have for us. When I first saw the molasses in the measuring cup I was so pleased. Because of your recipe for molasses buns I have kept it in the cupboard. I use it tor wheat bread and banana bread. It adds such a wonderful flavor to these baked items. I share them with a neighbor. Thank you so much. Marion in Oregon.
