baking sweet

Sunday, April 17th, 2005

I’ve got chocolate chunk banana bread and sour cream coffee cake cooling in the kitchen. Sour cream makes for a moist crumb. The coffee cake is for Suzanne who turned 30 on Thursday. Alex surprised her with an issue of 30 Magazine in which he compiled articles from her friends and family. She thought it was a REAL magazine! I can’t wait to get my copy of it (Alex is providing one for everyone who contributed). Suzanne is a huge fan of baked goods (all 80 pounds of her). Because I didn’t have enough rotting banana to make the banana bread, I picked up two more at Pavilions yesterday. I asked if they had any “brown” bananas. Produce Guy explained that they compost all of their rotting produce! How cool is that?! I can’t wait to have a compost pile. The amount of trash we produce will dwindle to almost nothing after recycling and composting! I wonder if I’ll have to grow vegetables on our deck? Otherwise I’ll just be creating a buffet bar for the local fauna.
