Well clearly you can't celebrate 'Murica day without a 'Murican! I'm on my way; save me a loaf. ;)

come visit me and I'll make you some fresh :) these ones would get very stale ;)

here you go!
2 cups brown bread flour (see! you did rub off on me!)
2 cups plain flour (all purpose)
2 oz butter
1 tbsp cocoa
1 tsp salt

rub them together then I added 1sachet easy blend yeast (6 grams)

1/4 cup black treacle (or I guess molasses!)
1/4 cup milk
add enough hot water to the wet ingredients to make it blood temperature and add to the dry ingredients, adding more warm water till it's a nice soft dough. I think I used about 3/4 of a (uk) pint total. Knead, then let it rise, shape it and prove, then brush with egg white and sprinkle with oats. bake at 230c ( I think 445 Fahrenheit) for 20 minutes.

Sadly, I don't actually know the next time I will be in the UK. :( Boo, plane tickets! But I do want to try and get together next time I'm there...it's silly to be so close (Nottingham) and not do something.
