Banana Bread and Graduation
Well, the banana bread turned out great. I used a Cooking Light recipe and it's been moister every day since I made it. Made French toast with it on Saturday evening, and it was delicious. It was dense but tasty.
Banana Bread
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons margarine, melted
4 medium sized ripe bananas, peeled and mashed
1 egg, lightly beaten
Combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine sugar and next three ingredients; add to flour mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
Pour batter into an 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 by 3 inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on a wire rack 10 minutes; remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.
Today was kindergarten graduation. Sob! I can't believe my baby is growing up so fast! I got very teary during the ceremony and when the teacher was giving out awards beforehand. I know, it's inevitible, but time just flies.
I'm currently reading Like Dandelion Dust by Karen Kingsbury. And although I enjoy her writing, I'm finding myself avoiding this one because I'm a bit burned out on her books after reading so many the past few weeks.
Off to clean a little before dinner!

What a dollbaby! She is darling and looks so happy to be moving up :)
Oh my gosh! I'm so glad we didn't have an official graduation- I'd have been blubbering the whole way through. As it was I got all teary eyed watching my little girl run out of school and realizing that she was already done with Kindergarten! First Grade! Yikes! (She's adorable, btw)
Yum! Looks so good.
Your girl is adorable!

I can't believe Grace is old enough to be entering 1st grade in the fall. Last thing I remember was she was just a baby! How old are the rest of them now?
