In large bowl, beat eggs with sugar, by hand.

Add A-Z ingredients, then add dry mixture to wet and stir just until mixed together.
Pour into 2 9x5 inch loaf pans and bake 50-60 minutes.
Insert knife into center and it should come out clean when done.
Allow to cool, almost completely, in the pan.
Remove from pan. May have to gently slide a knife around edges.
Slice when completely cool. If you can wait!

*If you are adding chopped nuts, reserve ½ cup of dry ingredients, toss nuts (or chips) in dry ingredients. Add coated nuts into complete mix and barely mix. This should prevent them from clumping together or settling in the bottom of the bread.*
