Sophi, desperate cook: Thank you.

Kate: I agree with your approach. It’s what I’m trying to do and I blog about this because I think, like you have mentioned, “Many us have broken family stories and have suffered through a less-than-perfect childhood. Sharing is the way to heal and deal”. Thank you!

My grandmas are both great cooks. I think I cook like them, good ingerdients, simple preparation.

Niki: I heard about aluminum-free baking powder. thanks you for bringing it up here.

Kristen: indeed she is. Thank you for the feedback.

Nurit this looks fabulous!! We were clearly on the same wavelength with the bananas. I think it's great that you are sharing the trials and tribulations going on with your family. Many us have broken family stories and have suffered through a less-than-perfect childhood. Sharing is the way to heal and deal. My thoughts are with you! Be strong and don't let the decisions that others made with their lives determine the course of yours (which you clearly have not). kate’s last blog post..Banana Walnut Muffins

You had me at the wonderful photo of your grandmother. A friend let me in on your goodfoodandbadfood blog, then I linked here. Looks like a great recipe site! After reading a bit on your other blog, I have to plug aluminum-free baking powder…. see more at http://spilledingredients.com/2009/06/fake-baking-its-not-just-happening-in-tanning-booths/.

what a nice lady. reminds me of my own grandmother om my mother’s side (at least the cigarette in hand does! but grandma was also a really good cook).

So after trying Orangette’s banana bread recipe at http://orangette.blogspot.com/2008/08/clear-sign.html, and swapping in half whole-wheat flour for white, I thought I’d found the perfect banana bread recipe. But now I have to try yours.

Hi y’all,
Thank you for the comments and feedback.
Yes, my grandma is a character. She definitely has a love of life and a lot of sass and spark. I will write more about her. The little that I know. Unfortunately, I don’t know her very well. That’s just how life turned out…

Kate, you make me blush.
