It’s alright Banana Bread

IMG_9421

Do I like banana bread?  It’s alright.

Anyway.  I’ve had one of those days.  The kind that leeches all life-force and ambition for everything other than looking at google images of Connor Lamb’s terrible haircut.  And since there are fifty things I should have done today, but didn’t, I’m making banana bread with three old and gross bananas.

Bana-ppétit.
