B is for Banana Bread

My favorite recipe for Banana bread comes from my mother and I have it written on at least twenty little scraps of paper scattered all over my house.  I lose them constantly and it seems like I have to call her at least every second time I wanted to make it.  I think it drives her insane.   The bananas should be well ripened but I have taken to always keeping some in my freezer so they are always good to make bread with (always good for smoothies too).

Ingredients:

3 ripe bananas well mashed (I use a potato masher)
2 eggs well beaten
2 cups flour
3/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease bread pan.  Mix bananas and eggs together.  Stir in the flour, sugar, salt and baking soda.  Pour into pan and tap on solid surface.  Bake for 1 hour.


That's it.  Simple, easy and oh so delicious.  And now I won't lose it.

Spooktacular Giveaway Hop

When I was much younger than I am now, I loved nothing more that a good "spooky" story.  I spent many nights laying up in bed reading books that were designed to make your skin crawl and leave you with goose bumps. My personal favourite author for Young Adult Thrillers was and probably still is Christopher Pike.  Twenty years after reading his books some of them still stand out in my mind in perfect clarity.  The top one would be Remember Me. Something about Shari's story struck a chord with me that has echoed through the last twenty years, as any good book should I suppose. Sadly when I was a teenager I didn't hold on to as many books as I do now so I spend a lot of time hunting to replace the ones I really wish I had kept. (Sweet Valley High anyone?) I am giving away a $15 Amazon gift card in the hopes that you can use it to buy a book to be loved as much as I loved this one. a Rafflecopter giveaway This post is part of The Spooktacular Giveaway Hop

A to Z Challenge 2020 Theme

It has been a while since I have been here on the blog but I decided that since I was home and unable to do much else I would throw down for the A to Z Challenge this year.  I know that I have tried specific themes in the past, usually reading related but themes very much seem to hold me back. This year my theme is random, literally, I went to randomwordgenerator.com and put in the letters and picked the first word that came up.  It has made for an interesting list, one that has come up with a lot of topics for posts that will hopefully inspire myself writing them and anyone reading them this year. I know that we are all going through varying degrees of tough times right now but we need to find the bright spots when and where we can. I look forward to reading everyone's blogs in April. Melissa
