got bananas? make banana bread

ours were about to go south and since we paid up for them we may as well get some use of out them. it was raining and generally poopy outside today, so why not bake? i dug around for a good banana bread recipe, but needed something all fell into the ‘low-fat’ arena too. i came across this one and it seemed to foot the bill since the only ingredients i needed to buy were eggs and buttermilk.

i tweaked mine, obviously since i can’t leave well enough alone, and added some cinnamon and supplemented the white sugar with brown. it’s in the oven right now and it smells damn good. will post pics once it comes out and is not hot as hell. the real test: tomorrow. if it tastes that good, if not better tomorrow then i have a winner on my hand.

i love mine with a hit of nutella on the side.  soooooo good.  oh and if you are going to use the recipe above, add some extra banana, like half a cup, to really bring out the banana goodness.

single men with cats scare me

today while on one of my frequent trips to the grocery store i was in line behind some guy with quite a stack of goods, mostly cat food and kitty litter.  he had no ring on his finger and i was a bit frightened.  it just seems unnatural to me for a single guy to have a cat.  now, it’s not that cats scare me, nor do single guys, but the combination of the two really really creeps me out in a jack-nicholson-in-the-shining sort of way.

this guy had like 25 tins of cat food a huge thing of kitty litter and was buying frozen dinners. yes, i made the assumption, whatever, you do it too.  don’t act like you don’t.  it just creeped me out.  a single woman with a cat: no issues here.  a single guy: just wrong.  so whatever, just something i had to share.  anyone else out there get creeped out by seemingly random things?  i hope it’s not just me.
