I love to bake breads and give them to my neighbors for Christmas gifts.  This bread is also a favorite of my office.  Everyone loves to see this bread coming into the office.

3 cups sugar
1 cup oil
4 eggs, slightly beaten
1 can pumpkin
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2/3 cups water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mix sugar and oil. Add pumpkin and eggs.
Blend well. Then, add flour, spices, and water. Mix completely.  Pour into two, well-greased loaf pans.  Bake for 1 1/2 hours.
