• Sift together the 1st 5 ingredients. Make a well in the center of the bowl.
• Beat together (high speed on an electric mixer) the next 4 ingredients for 3-5 minutes ~ until frothy. Add the herbs, and beat well.
• Pour the liquid - herb mixture into the well in the center of the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon until thoroughly blended.
• Pour into a well-buttered loaf pan, and bake 40-50 minutes (until knife inserted into center-of-bread comes out clean).
