  1. Oh, it's been far too long since I baked a good loaf cake! Zucchinis aren't quite in season here, but at least they're cheaper than bananas, so I think I could justify it ;)

    my sister makes a scrumptious banana bread. a local market sells their ripe bananas dirt cheap. you've reminded me that i need to get her recipe asap.
