Tried Pandora's bread with fruit (apricot preserves and bits of dried
fruit) instead of savory fillings. The bread is too salty for this to
be really good, but it's not bad. We'll eat it, but next time, I'll
find a sweeter bread dough to do this with.

It's definitely gorgeous, though, so I think I'll make a sweet version
for a potluck we're going to on Sunday.

Thank you so much! I'm going to a handfasting (similar to a wedding)
on Sunday, and I'll take one of these.
