Lemon Bread

Super with a cup of tea or coffee

1 cup sugar 

1/2 cup shortening

2 eggs

1/2 cup milk

1 1/2 cups flour

salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

Mix together and put in long pan.  350 degrees for 40 minutes.  Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon in a cup, add 1/2 cup sugar and let stand till bread is done.  As soon as bread comes from oven spread mixture on top of bread with a spoon or brush and leave in pan to cool.  (use all the mixture, just keep putting it on.   It soaks down  thru the load.  Awful good).  Pan size: 13” long, 4 1/2” wide, 2 1/2” deep.
