NYTimes Crossword: "111-Across!"

Irish soda bread

I decided to make a loaf of Irish soda bread in honor of St. Patrick's Day today. Ina Garten has a very easy recipe that's really delicious, you can find it here.
The recipe calls for buttermilk, which I don't always have on hand, but I had a carton in the fridge from a casserole recipe I made earlier in the week, so it was a no-brainer decision.
