Suzy Homemaker has escaped, ha!

      Yep, I'm certain Suzy Homemaker escaped today ... I so seldom bake I thought for certain my neighbor must be baking, then realized it's MY kitchen that has this "aroma" of baked goods!  I needed to use my black bananas so I found a recipe that sounded good, made some changes in the original recipe, and hoped it would be, at least, edible.  It' a good thing I checked it early, it would have burned.  It's more like a heavy bread, than banana bread ... very, very moist because of the applesauce, a tasty morsel indeed.
      I am more comfortable changing a basic recipe with soups, stews, or one-dish meals, not so much with "baking" -  not nearly so comfortable.
      Realizing I don't have "loaf" pans, I had to use a glass casserole dish, let them cool, cut and store them, so I can  wash the dang casserole dish and use it again.  What's next?  I have some zucchini that needs used and a friend has shared a recipe for a "Zucchini Casserole".  I'm on board with that since I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, nor do I know what to do with it.  So, that's my next culinary concoction to attempt today.
     In spite of overbaking just a tad, the  Zucchini Casserole was yummy.  And, yes, I would make it again.  I haven't baked in such a long time, and my kitchen is small and inefficient so I am forced to clean up after myself - during and in between individual dishes.  Those two dishes took a few more hours than I anticipated.  No time for any more culinary experimentation today.

There is such a thing as zucchini brownies. They are pretty good, Nice and moist. Wouldn't know there was zucchini in them. I never made them, but tasted from a friend.
I am pretty sure they were not Alice B. Tokilas (sp) brownies. Lol.

I keep thinking about doing some baking, especialy the eating part and then I talk myself out of it. I hate the mess that I always make and the clean up part. I have to have alot of energy, I guess to even get started. I should just DO IT and not think about the MESS.

Vicki,
Now zucchini brownies sound good ... lol about Alice B *smile* I didn't have the "energy" you spoke of, and never have enough room, but I had food that I didn't want to go to waste - a double-edge sword ... to bake or not to bake ... to waste, or not to waste ... hmmm ...
