Loading keys from dictionary to optionMenu

I am trying to load menuItem from dictionary keys

      def loadMenuItems(self,*args):
          """
          loads all favorite items to menu
          """

          print self.favItems," in loadMenuItems"
          for eachitem in self.favItems.iterkeys():
              print eachitem
              cmds.menuItem(label=eachitem, parent='favMenu')

on executing this function i get the following output
{‘C Drive’: ‘C:\’} in loadMenuItems
C Drive

but still the for loop doesn adds eachItemt o menuItem whose parent is ‘favMenu’…

why is it happenig…

forget it i figured it out…
