Hello, I am hoping all you people out there with the CL complete cookbook can help me. I am in seattle with my grandparents and want to make the spinach garlic swirl bread from the CL complete cookbook, but alas, mine is at home. I have searched the board but to no avail! I am just hoping someone could post it for me. Thanks so much!!

Hi Alice! I was wondering what you were up to. I have the Complete Cookbook but since I don't have Mastercook I'll wait and see if anyone posts it for you. If not I will type it in for you. Do you ever get to Pike Market while you are there? It is foodie heaven. If you get to a Trader Joe's get the Pirate Booty- Iam dying to know what it is. I will check back in an hour....
