This is the perfect banana bread banana! If you are not ready to make banana bread quite yet with the ripe bananas, simply peel the bananas and place in a ziplock bag and freeze them....

Our team took turns bringing breakfast on Fridays. We usually had leftovers, which would be left in the common area for scavengers (did anyone else prowl around her office, searching for free extra food?). Except when my co-worker Michael baked his famous blueberry buckle.

Butter tarts are always prepared in miniature, never in a larger pie form....

As it turns out, no one could follow me until Monday night, when I realized my settings had my username hidden....

Maybe it’s because I grew up on chicken bacon ranch Subway sandwiches or because I dipped my pizza in ranch dressing as a kid, but the phrase “chicken bacon ranch” makes my heart flutter.
