I'm making banana bread. I will have to taste-test it before I feed it to people tomorrow. Oh, darn.
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Mmm, banana bread.
Damn. I put the second (and last ever!) loaf of my parents' banana and macadamia nut bread in the freezer. But now I want some.
This is all your fault! Damn you, wee shrift!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I LOVE banana bread.

Hey! I just didn't want to let perfectly good overripe bananas go to waste!
And I only found out yesterday that a lot of people are coming over for tomorrow's Oscar party, so next I shall be making chocolate chip cookies. And if the avocados cooperate, guacamole.

(I have chocolate chip cookies, too. In the freezer. You are not helping.)

And for dinner tonight I'm planning on chicken linguine with asparagus and pine nuts.
Please tell me you don't have that in your freezer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Does everyone get the Oscars live? If so, it's a major drawback to living on the east coast -- I think I've gone to one Oscars party and stayed through the whole show, because it's just too darn late on a Sunday!
Also, how long do bananas take to get ripe? What I mean to ask is, what should they look like today if they're going to be perfect on Monday?

Ummm....
Nope. I have it in my fridge.
Okay, not the chicken linguine. But I do have asparagus and pine nuts, and I do need to do something with them before I leave for the week.

Regular yellow bananas? Man, I actually do not know. I think the ones I bought last Thursday were greenish, and they're just fully ripe now. They're supposed to be best when deep yellow and spotted with brown. If I let them go too long, I toss them in the freezer for to make bread.
Nope. I have it in my fridge.
Apparently we are food twins today.

OK, that's good to know. For myself, I just buy whatever and eat them when they seem good, but these are for someone else.
