Latin Jazzercise.
That sounds nice.
My BIL and I are both batching it, so we're having dinner tonight. I told him to make sure Reid was still awake when I came over since I haven't seen him in a week.
Oh, thanks Angela! I was confuzzled.
Well, it DID sound nice but we decided on McCormick and Schmick's instead! I am having a serious seafood withdrawl....
Have fun tonight with BIL and Reid.
Mel- Mmnnmmm I LOVE PF CHANGS! Will you eat some chicken lettuce wraps for me?!
Not tonight JenV. Sorry honey!
Mel - I know you've got a killer Banana bread recipe - wanna share with me? I have a bunch of bananas that are over ripe and DH asked me to bake some bread. I don't know what he's thinking.
Yes, yes I do!
Here it is:
Banana Bread (via Mel by way of a girl in Peoria, IL named Michelle who I met once but stole her recipe....)
1/2 Cup butter or margarine, soft (her recipe says shortening but i like butter)
1 Cup Sugar
3 bananas (or 1 Cup) mashed up
dash of nutmeg
1 3/4 Cup Flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
pinch of salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, then bananas and nutmeg.
Add dry ingrediants (I usually add 1 cup flour, then mix the rest of the ingrediants with the 3/4 cup of flour and add that to insure it's well combined)
Grease a standard bread pan (i use Pam) and add batter.
Bake at 350 for about 1 hour.
I have made a million recipes, fancy ones and crumb top ones etc. This VERY basic one is the BEST!

It is so nasty outside. I went to Target for some supplies for Bob's trip. I could not find a single parking spot ANYWHERE! It is raining, snowing, sleeting and WINDY!!! I had to walk about 1/4 mi to get to the store, my umbrella blew INSIDE out!!! It's terrible. Really.
I think the temp is hovering around freezing so it's getting slippy outside (that's for Jo..) and it's now mostly snow! I hope it doesn't get worse, dinner is about 30 mins away and I won't want to drive down there if it does.
Tonight when we get back, SD is going to his friend's house for a sleepover. This is the friend that he's having those problems with. He is trying to do a sleepover there because that was one of his triggers for his panic attacks. I don't want to discourage him because it's a goal he set for himself, but I'm worried.

I want him to push himself to do things and go outside his comfort zone but I'm so anxious that he'll relapse. Keep fingers crossed girlies!
Wow. Watching the tornado damage on TV. Scary scary!
Glad you guys are all ok!
MEL
