Zucchini Spice Bread

Eugene and I picked up a few too many zucchinis at the farmers market on the weekend. In order to help us chew our way through them I was put to the task of making this bread today. I've taken the recipe straight out of Bon Appetite by Barbara Fairchild. As she says in her description of this loaf; it is lighter than traditional recipes. It is more like a spice cake. I can hardly wait for it to cool enough for me to start munching!
