Midweek Check In

Happy Hump Day to you and yours!  Anyone else having a case of the "short week feels longer than a regular week" yet or does that hit tomorrow? Unfortunately, Monday afternoon the tweens/teens found the pool not too far from the abode so we got to listen to the hootings of young, insecure males attempting to show off for both girls and their fellow brethren.  I'm really hoping this is just some cousins visiting or something for the weekend because I know of only one teen boy here and he's a loner.  Is pool season over yet?   It always starts strong like this and then typically dies down within a month but what an irritating month it is until then.  We did some more work out on the patio Monday.  It was going to be the last sunny day before two days of forecasted rain...again.  I made sure to get the new picket painted and hung to cover this delightful sight: When the picket was off, I could see how bad the support 2x4's looked on the fence.  ...

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.  šŸ˜‰

    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!
