That's Bananas!



There is a cute, new, little market near the bike shop where Husband works. Yesterday he and his boss found a few boxes in the dumpster filled with perfectly good apples, lemons and ripe bananas. So of course being the resourceful beings they are, they split up the goods and brought them home.
If a small market like that is throwing out all this good food it bothers me a bit to think of all the good food that is probably being thrown out on a daily basis at larger grocery stores.
Dumpster Diving anyone?!
Anyways...
I had all these ripe bananas and of course I decided to make bread. Little did I know that I would make THE BEST BANANA BREAD OF MY LIFE!
Seriously.
I have never been that crazy about banana bread until now. Until, America's test kitchen MADE ME CRAZY about banana bread.
I can't stop eating it.
Really, it's a problem.

Now what to do with a shit-ton of lemons....

Fun times were had by all...except when the skunks came out to play










It snowed.
A lot.
I missed summer.
I made bruschetta.

We went for a hike in the night.
The wind was intense.
And so was the smell of skunk.

We bathed puppies.
I watched this.
Then I made it.
Then we ate it.

I practiced yoga.
I made granola.
We are crunchy.

And that was our weekend.

Pretty

My husband is more of a "stop on the side of road and pick some wildflowers" kind of guy when it comes to getting me flowers. Which is what I prefer. But I must say this bouquet is gorgeous and I would not ever be opposed to receiving something like this!

Bear likes art.




I think this is the start of something fun...
