As the days get shorter and darker earlier, I feel myself getting ready for Fall and Winter nesting.

For me, that means a pile of books, more often than not cookbooks, a warm throw and a cozy fire. I love to spend my days reading and baking and frankly just getting cozy with a cup of tea and a tasty treat.

One of my favorite things to bake when it is cold out is a quick bread, simply because it is quick, easy and delicious. This chocolate quick bread is just that, quick, easy and filled with melty chocolate chips and chunks. I think it is going to fit in very nicely with my plans for this Fall and Winter.
