I dont think Ive made so many sweets and treats in my life, than over the past week. We celebrated my hubbys birthday 4 days after my babys, so theres been ridiculous amounts of sugar running through our familys bloodstream.
Its been good and bad, all at the same time. Good for my taste buds.... bad for my thighs. Good for the smiles on my birthday boys faces.... bad that my kids have been on a sugar high for a week. Emma was running so fast in our hallway the other night, she ate the wall. Literally. She had paint in her mouth, and a nice little bump on her chin to prove it. : /
Ive had a pile of bananas sitting on my counter for a week. Whos going to eat a nice, healthy banana when youve got mounds of cake in the fridge!? I thought I better make one last treat with them... ya know, so they didnt go to waste ;)
So banana cake it was. It was moist, delicious and divine. I would serve this for a dessert or even for a brunch. When you taste it, you might even eat it for breakfast. Its that good!
