going bananas!

A week ago at church we put together fruit baskets to take to homebound parishioners, as well as a few others in the community whom we felt might enjoy a surprise basket of goodies. Ken took one of the baskets to deliver to a family later in the week when he was in their area, and kept it in his truck to help keep things fresh. Well, that works fine except for bananas, the skins of which turn brown/black upon refrigeration (as long as they aren't too ripe they're still good to eat!).

Not wanting to deliver less-than-prime fruit, he brought the bananas into the house, and they've been sitting on the kitchen counter. A moment ago a voice from the other room called to me, "you're making banana bread today, right?"

Yes, we're going bananas!
