Buttermilk Honey Bread

This is one of my favorite breads to bake. It is from the Bread Bible and is simply delicious. No one I have ever given this to has said they did not like it. The secret is the buttermilk which adds a tangy flavor to the bread.
The only change I make to the recipe is I start with two cups of whole wheat flour rather than simple white, unbleached flour. I usually use King Arthur's 100% whole wheat flour combined with King Arthur's white, unbleached flour (which makes sense since my daughters just finished watching Avalon High which is about the reincarnation of King Arthur and knights of the Round Table).
As you can see from the picture, the bread is also popular around my house as the girls ate about half of it while I was building the frame for a set of cornholes in the basement.
