What I'm Reading This Week #32

Howdy do y'all and how's it hanging this week?  It feels weird to not have had people traipsing in and out of the house all week.  I'll take it though.  We haven't had any storms yet, of course so no sigh of relief just yet but fingers crossed.  What I can happily update is in using the moisture meter against the wall yesterday, is the off the chart over 99 number we got before that set off alarms?  It's now down to 24 and technically considered dry but those baseboards aren't going back up until we've had some storms.  I can't tell you how relieving it is to have that meter so we know the moisture is going down in a place we couldn't see unless we cut out a huge piece of drywall.  Tuesday I did some zinnia pruning as that task got ignored for two weeks because of the aforementioned traipsers (new word).  It'll be interesting to see if rando zinnias start popping up due to the petals that have seeds attached falling off.  I was working besid...

3 Ingredient Banana Bread Cookies



Anyone else play the game "do my most ill-fitting jeans still fit" and lose?

Just me?

Well, if you still need some comfort food whilst reigning things in a bit, these can do the trick.  There are only 3 basic ingredients needed but you can add a few others for extra flavor.

Ingredients
2 medium overripe bananas
1 1/4- 1 1/2 quick cook oats
1/3 - 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Optional Extras
1/8 tsp salt
Dash complimentary spice like cardamom, allspice, cinnamon, or nutmeg

Preheat the oven to 350F/177C.

In a bowl, mash two medium overripe bananas, add 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 cups of quick rolled oats (steel cut will not work for this), and stir until combined.  Add 1/3-1/2 cup chocolate chips.  (I used Ghirardelli 60% but regular Nestle bittersweet taste really good too) and stir.

Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray or use a silicone baking sheet and make 6 cookies and mash down slightly with your hand or fork as cookies will not spread much as they bake.

Bake for 13-15 minutes or until cookies are set up.  Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the tray. 

Never feel guilty about having a few cookies during this time for breakfast again.  😉

    What a great idea to make these with the bananas that were about to be wasted otherwise. They turned out great and were a nice surprise for a snack in my case. I loved them!
