Sudden Craze

I can't tell you the number of times that I made banana bread.  I think I was forced into this recent baking exercise for the simple reason that I had five bananas laying on top of the 'fridge.  (Can we say "where is the counter space?),   I love bananas, and usually eat them all up, but there I was in a Cowboy Stare-Down.

In college I used The Joy of Cooking as my Bible but now there are a zillion variations on Pinterest or foodie sites.  A quickbread is probably my favorite thing to bake.   I guess it's too late for me to scream - not about the bread but I totally forgot to get some milk.   So what do I have, you ask?  Do I have fake powdered stuff or uber heavy cream?  I have a small container of ALMOND MILK.  As I'm sure you know, almond milk might as well be labelled WATER + 3 almond slivers waved over the water.   Granted, I use non-fat organic milk since I think it tastes better.  I don't need the calories of half-and-half so Almond Milk will suffice.

The Classic R&B channel on Amazon Prime has damn good music.  These songs are older than me, but they remind me of my dad.  He would've liked the banana bread.
