Come Mr. Tally man...

Inch and I cruised over to the coop today and scored 10 pounds of "ready to go" organic bananas, at a drastic price reduction. That's a whole lotta potassium.

Thanks to the infite wisdom of the cellar and in particular the fair clodfobble, I peeled and froze much of the lot in zip lock bags.

When his inchliness wakes from his nap we'll make banana bread with pecans and maple syrup.

Just thought I'd share my banana boon.

Try adding cardamom to (some of) the bread... It's a great combo with ber-naners.

I miss 'em. Too high a GI for me...

Clodfobble · 09-14-2006, 06:48 PM

Don't forget banana smoothies for breakfast!

Happy Monkey · 09-14-2006, 07:51 PM

Peanut butter and banana sammiches are tasty, too!

Griff · 09-14-2006, 08:41 PM

banana pancakes!
and of course banana wine

Elspode · 09-14-2006, 10:40 PM

And make sure 'Silla makes you some fried peanut butter n' nanna samiches...

How much per pound on that drastic price reduction, then?

footfootfoot · 09-14-2006, 11:45 PM

.60/lb for organic, usually they are in the .90s.

Not sure what the rest of the world pays.

And ladies and gentlemen the banana breads are out of the oven!

mit cardamom, and pecans. most yummy.

Get thee a copy of the "Hershey's Chocolate Treasury Cookbook."

Make the Chocolate Banana Bread. Add Chocolate Chunks to the mix. Or white chocolate if you're in that kind of mood, but I'm a purist.

I can post the recipe later, but I don't have it in hand at the moment.

In a moment of pure gestalt I was walking from the mixer carrying the wet ingredients toward the counter where the dry ingredients were sitting and right behind the bowl, perfectly lined up, like navigational lights in the Inland Passage was a can of Ghirardeli's chocolate powder. I had the thought "I wonder if chocolate in this banana bread would be simply awesome or a complete crash and burn?

I took the safe route, but next time I'll give those moments of insight a deeper look.

OK this had been a family thread until you brought up self fellation. So now you should feel compelled to tell us the other things he convinced you try and not do. It's a standard cellar penalty, ask anyone. :p And welcome to the cellar.

Not Foster's Lager, I hope. Isn't rum how everyone puts their kids to sleep?

Strange thing, I didn't eat bananas for years. Couldn't stand the texture, nor the taste. Didn't mind dried bananas so much, but wouldn't go near fresh ones. Then I accidentally ate some in a fruit salad and thought 'what a lovely thing' and found myself wondering what had turned me off them for so long. After a great deal of soul searching I remembered an ex telling me how much he hated them and so I stopped buying them while he lived with me. Silly suggestible me.

Hey! I just made bananananana smoothies for the kids 2 nights in a row!

And I love a bananananaa and mayonaise sammich from time to time. My dear old Mom used to make 'em for me. Then, she's smack me upside my head but that's another story.

Ahhhhh, the stories, the stories. Too dire to tell, methinks. Ånd perhaps the most dire of them all is... Reader, I married him. At four in the morning, with no celebrant, his drummer as bishop and drummers' girlfriend as maid of honour. An illegal blood letting ceremony with (!!!Thank All The Stars In Heaven And Every Beneficient Entity!!!) nothing legally binding us together.

And once we did the deed at a gig. In the middle of the crowd. I had a short skirt on. I don't THINK anyone noticed. So maybe we weren't doing it right?

Ahhhh.... The stories, the stories. Sex, Drugs, Rock 'n' Roll... but no bananas.

Now that is sick and twisted. Everyone knows that there should be no bloodletting in marriage until the divorce.

Sheldonrs · 03-28-2009, 11:51 PM

Bananas can be used as food too? Cool! I usually throw them out when I'm done with them.

hehehe

Not everyone knows that, believe me.
