is the one food I can not go without!
And, dear ones, this banana nut bread
has truly gone straight to my taste buds!!!
A true vision of loveliness. . .
this is a light, heavenly taste of sweetness
that surpasses any I've ever tasted!!!
The most difficult part of this recipe
is waiting for the bread to cool before slicing!!!
While living in the Colorado Springs area,
I taught at Widefield Recreation Center Pre~School!
One of my students mothers shared her Grandmother's
homemade Banana Nut Bread recipe with me. . .
and it is truly the b e s t nut bread e v e r!!!

We like banana bread too, especially since it's a good way to use up ripened bananas. This year, for the first time I made a banana cake after seeing a recipe on Pinterest and it was really good too. Of course, the cream cheese frosting I iced it with added a nice sweetness.
