Tuesday

Another day in the neighborhood.


Same old ~ same old.


Mundane madness....food, clean up, food, clean up, food, clean up interspersed with laundry, phone calls, errands, household tasks,  etc etc
Just makes you want to get back in bed doesn't it!


Today why not  "shake it up".
Do something out of the ordinary.   Bake some banana bread  and take it to the neighbor along with some  pictures that the kids have drawn.   Spread some blessings!!


I have the ABSOLUTE  BEST  Banana Bread Recipe    It can be whipped up in minutes and  any neighbor would find it a real treat!


Cream 1 stick butter with 1 cup sugar.
Add an egg   continue to beat
Throw in 3 very ripe bananas  (mash them first if you do not have a strong mixer)
Add  1 and half cups of flour plus 1 tsp of baking soda


Pour into a greased loaf pan or it will make 2-3 of the little loaf pans (so you can spread the warmth even further!)
Bake about 45-50 mins for a regular loaf pan..
Delish!


PS  I find bananas on the markdown rack for around 20 cents a lb.   Buy some and if they are good and black (Yes!!! don't you dare throw those ugly looking things out!) throw them just as they are in the freezer and you will be ready at a moments notice to surprise your family with something yummy!   


Love you all!
