Hey hey, it’s FRIDAY!
Whew. What a week! It seems like all I’ve been doing are all the things one who grows older does. Doctors’ appointments, hearing tests, a DEXA scan, thinking of my mortality (not to worry, I’m not dying—yet), scheduling my shingles shots, exercising, adding supplements to my already lengthy list…as my mom says, getting old is for the birds! In addition to putting my health at the top of my to-do list, I tested so many good recipes this week, and man, oh man, you’re going to be cooking up a storm this summer! I also had some bananas perfectly ripe for banana bread (aka way too brown and mushy to eat on their own) so I made my mom and her lady friends my favorite banana bread. I added 1 cup of sweetened shredded coconut, and oh-my-word, it turned out utterly FANTASTIC as shown above. Highly recommend (or try these muffins).
