Beyond the trees [ what were left ] is a development starting. The folks who live there are not happy about it. The developer wanted it re-zoned to fit more houses in = more money for the developer. All surrounding neighborhoods have opposed the re-zoning .. we went to City Hall. Got members we knew on the City Council to listen to 'why' it wasn't good for the area. No, we did not win in keeping the development out, but we did get the size of the lots and home to match what was already there. There will be a cut-through street ... at the end of our street. Joy ! I shall sit in the front yard with my speed gun {hair dryer} and a notebook jotting down tag numbers. Yes, got experience in doing this in Florida ... it worked in getting the cars to slow down. Progress isn't always progress ... depends on which side of the dollar you are holding. My camera can be intimidating .. will get tag numbers easily .. though I would much rather have a stash of stop sticks -- those things with nails in them the deflate tires quickly! If the trees above are removed, I'll go get my friend from years ago - we watched from our backyard as trees were removed "to make it easier to build" .... if they missed a tree - one of us would yell .."HEY, you missed one !" 1 PiP Wording makes no sense on the sign .. who is going to hunt or fish there? Waiting for some bullet holes to show up ..

Banana Bread put on rack to cool .. both loaves .. took one to the drum circle .. came home with an empty pan .. requests made to 'please make more?' .. - preheat oven to 350 degrees F, with rack placed in lowest position - pan sizes: 8.5 x 4.5 x 2.5 (2 loaves) or 9 x 5 x 3 (1 loaf) Recipe Ingredients: 1 c. sugar 1/4 c. unsweetened applesauce 1/4 c. butter / room temp. 1/2 c. eggs ... 2 eggs ... 1 1/2 c. mashed bananas .. 3 or 4 1/2 c. sour milk .. can use regular and just add vinegar or lemon juice to sour it 1 t. vanilla [ didn't use vanilla: used spices instead] 1 t. ginger & 1/2 t. allspice 2 c. Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose flour 1/2 c. cornstarch [ if making w/regular wheat flour .. leave out cornstarch .. make flour amount= 2 1/2 c. all purpose flour ] 1 t. baking soda 1 c. chopped nuts [ opt ] -- but, if toasted ahead of time, taste so good Directions: In large bowl, put all dry ingredients. Mix well with spoon. [ not the nuts, yet ] For wet ingredients - mix well in a separate bowl. Combine wet ingredients into the dry; mix well. Add nuts and stir. Spoon into loaf pan [s] which have been greased on the bottom only. Bake the smaller 8.5 " pans for about 1 hour. The 9" loaf .. about 1 1/2 hrs. Note: baked 2 8.5" pans just under an hour. Toothpick inserted in center should come out clean. Remove and place on cooling rack for 10 min. Then, loosen sides of pan [s] and place top side up on rack to completely cool. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store at room temp. up to 4 days or refrigerate up to 10 days. Plan on making more and freezing them. ** For the Banana-Brandon topping: - slice bananas length wise & place over batter before baking - sprinkle a mix of cinnamon .. nutmeg .. ground cloves and either brown sugar or cane sugar .. this caramelizes on top. All this part is subject to how much intensity of spice you like. But, oh -- this is really good ! Would give credit to the original recipe, but have no idea where I got it. Have changed my baking to no wheat/gluten., but this one used to be made with regular flour. * all photos: © All Rights Reserved
