    1 1/2  cups          sugar
        2  teaspoons     baking powder
      1/4  teaspoon      salt
      2/3  cup           unsalted butter
        2                eggs
      3/4  cup           milk
        1  teaspoon      vanilla extract
      1/2  teaspoon      almond extract

 Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan. Line bottom and along
 sides of pan with waxed paper. Allow 3 inches overhang of paper at top.
 Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in
 butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Remove 1/2 cup flour mixture to
 medium bowl and set aside. Stir eggs, milk ,vanilla and almond extracts
 into original flour mixture. And beat until blended. Pour about 1 cup
 batter into prepared pan. Add almonds, cinnamon, and allspice to reserved
 flour mixture and stir well. Sprinkle 1/3 of the nut mixture over batter in
 pan. Repeat layering twice, ending with nut mixture. Bake until toothpick
 inserted in center comes out clean, about 70-80 minutes. Loosen sides of
 loaf pan with wide spatula. Grasping waxed paper firmly, pull loaf from pan
 and cool on wire rack.
