    I don't think they're cherries, I'm wondering if they're cranberries.

    Farkleberries!


    They would be blue.

    They're really nice, and if that's what they are, I might make my own
    cranberry bread. But as far as I know, I've never had cranberries
    before.

    Hard to say. What was the bread called?

    I only thought of it because I saw dried cranberries in the shop the other
    day, and was wondering what they would taste like. Then I remembered the
    red fruit in some type of bread I've had before. And I was wondering if
    they could be cranberries. I can't remember what the bread was.


    Do you remember you or anyone else paying for it? Perhaps it was
    stollen.

    That's either a typo or a wonderful pun on the bread "stollen".

    Pomegranate seeds, per chance?

    If they are low carb, I will eat them.

    Becca, I ws referring to what might be on top of the bread with sliced
    almonds; it might be pomegranate seeds. It is not something that one would
    normally think would be used -- but it's a good bet as they have been quite
    popular in the last few years.

    Dee, I never thought about pomegranate seeds. Thanks for mentioning that.

    Hmm. SO it appears. But the Farkleberry Cookies passed out by
    KDKA Radio had red fruit pieces in them. I guess they weren't
    using real farkleberries.
