A stolon is a horizontal stem that is fleshy or semi-woody and lies
along the top of the ground. A runner is a type of stolon. It is a
specialized stem that grows on the soil surface and forms a new plant at
one or more of its nodes. Strawberry runners are examples of stolons.
Remember, all stems have nodes and buds or leaves.

Ingredients:
14 ounces active baker's yeast
3/4 cup warm water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 egg yolk
1/2 cup butter; softened
3 1/2 cups flour
1 cup blanched almonds; chopped
1/2 cup candied lemon peel; cut into small pieces
1/2 cup candied orange peel; cut into small pieces
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel

Directions:

Dissolve the yeast in the water and proof it. Add the sugar, eggs, egg
yolk, butter and half the flour. Beat for 10 mins. Blend in the
remaining flour, nuts, fruits and peel. Let rise about 1 1/2 hours,
until doubled. Punch down, cover and refrigerate overnight.

Knead dough. Roll into one or two rectangles, butter it and fold over
the edges to make a rolled loaf. Place on a greased cookie sheet with
the folded edges down. Spread with a combination of one egg white and 1
tablespoon water. Let rise until doubled in size (about 45 - 60 mins.)
Bake 30 - 35 mins. at 375F.

You can also make them in normal bread pans, but increase the baking
time somewhat.

yeah, i guess i coulda mentioned that they should have plenty to eat off
of it if the plant does die............didn't think that far ahead!
hadn't tried this one. my recipe is 'bout the same, but without the
lemon and orange peel. saving this one to try later (ie, when it cools
down, baking bread is scarce around this house right now!)
