Baker’s Street


If there is such a place as Baker’s Street, I undoubtedly should move there. Although I do not cook (ever), I absolutely love to bake. After the hitting the gym everyday this week (sometimes multiple times per day), I realized how hungry I had become. While salads and veggies are healthy and quite filling, sometimes what you really need is a delectable, fluffy treat. Sunday is the perfect day to write and to bake. Looks like I’ve got both down.

Last week I made crepes. Today I made banana bread. And let me just tell you… it is DELICIOUS. I wish I could say I made it from scratch, but then I’d be lying. I found this amazing mix from the Central Market down the street from my house. I’m guessing it is organic because everything in the store is labeled so. All you need are 2 eggs, 1/3 cup of vegetable oil, 2/3 cup of water, and the banana bread mix. Spray some non-stick spray in a loaf pan, pour it in, and stick in the oven for 50 minutes at 350 degrees. Before you know it, you’ll find yourself eating the most moist, rich banana bread.

In other news, my mother is coming to visit me in late February! I honestly could not be more excited! I have missed her so much and am thrilled I get to show her around my lovely little city. Now, if only the month of February could fly by…

More later. Ciao.
