I'm looking for the DOUBLE GINGERBREAD LOAF recipe from the Holiday Issue 2003, page 106, of Canadian House and Home. It's the best! and I have misplaced mine. If anyone has the recipe, please, please post it for me. (And for anyone who hasn't tried it, they should.) Thanks in advance. Josephine Mullane
