    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1                cup  lukewarm water -- (8 oz)
       1/4           cup  honey -- (3 oz)
    2        Tablespoons  butter -- softened, (1 oz)
    3 1/2           cups  unbleached all-purpose flour -- King Arthur 
Flour, (14 7/8 oz)
    1 1/2      teaspoons  salt
    2          teaspoons  instant yeast
       1/2           cup  dried cranberries -- (2 oz)
       1/2           cup  dried blueberries -- (3 oz)

To make by hand:  In a lg bowl, mix together the water, honey, 
butter, flour, salt and yeast, adding more flour a T at a time if nec 
to make a soft dough.  Once you have dough you can handle dump it 
onto a lightly floured work surface and knead in the cranberries and 
blueberries.  Continue kneading until the berries are evenly 
disbursed and you have a smooth dough that bounces back when you 
press it.  Clean and lightly grease your mixing bowl and place the 
dough in it, covered, to rise for about an hour, until doubled in bulk.

Once the dough has finished its first rise, preheat your oven to 
350F.  Lightly grease a 8 1/2 x 4 1/2" loaf pan.  Deflate the dough, 
shape it and place it in your loaf pan, covered to rise for another 
30 min or so until the dough crowns about an inch above the edge of 
the pan.  Remove the cover and bake for 45 - 50 min, tenting the loaf 
with aluminum foil for the last 10-15 min, if nec, to prevent overbrowning.

To make in a bread machine:  Place the water, honey, butter, flou, 
salt and yeast in the pan of your bread machine in the order 
recommended by the manufacturer.  Program for white bread, med crust, 
and press start; or, if you want to shape and bake outside the 
machine, program for dough or manual and press start.

Add the berries when the machine beeps, or a few min before the end 
of the second kneading cycle.  Allow the machine to finish its 
cycle.  If shaping and baking by hand, follow the directions above to finish.
