Alright, so I made this bread about a year ago thinking it would be awesome! I'm not a grapefruit lover, but Tom likes it, so I figured he'd like it too. Well, I made it and was disappointed. BUT, maybe some of you more creative chefs can come up with a way to make this a yummy treat for everyone! Maybe I didn't like it because I don't love grapefruit, or maybe the peel was extremely blah cause the fruit wasn't in season and totally ripe - I dunno. Either way, if you try it and love, or hate it, let me know! I'd love to hear your results!
