I gave her a couple of helpful hints: Put a good measure of molasses in with the mashed bananas and also a good measure of salt. I added the salt in the mix. She said "that much salt?"

Is your full name Leonard Blaisdell? Good. Now how many squats would you like? I can give you a 20% discount on lots of 1000 pieces or more. You're not going to find higher quality squats at a lower price. |

It's a beautiful piece although of limited practical value since you'd have to have an extraordinarily large head to make this rug not look ridiculous. I'm talking huge here. It is most special and rare. Certain indiscretions in my associate's business dealings have forced me to liquidate parts of my collection. For the Hawaii Five-0 fan, it would be a priceless addition but I would reluctantly sell it to a discriminating buyer such as yourself for $100 cash. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! |

The recipe: 1.5 cups ripe bananas, mashed 2 cups sugar 2 cups flour 1/2 cup butter 2 teaspoons baking soda 5 eggs salt Mix together and bake in a 350 oven until done. You can customize you banana bread by adding stuff like molasses and dark spices and various extracts. I would keep the spices to a minimum to keep their flavor just under the radar. Keeping flavors just under the radar is my favorite trick. My daughter baked the bananas because she through they weren't ripe enough. I haven't tested the recipe so it's all not 100% yet. |

Use one cup of butter instead of half a cup. I should have also said that the butter is melted. Sorry about that. My wife bought some banana bread from a cafeteria we were at. It was just dry and unpleasant. Haha, they should have used more oil and sugar. |

It's a perfect sunny blue-sky day and the wedding service was lovely especially the gospel choir singing "Stand by me" and the American bishop's address :-). Bride's dress was perfect, elegantly simple with long long veil; she did you proud. What an entrance she made. I'm betting she starts a fashion for brides walking themselves down the aisle.

Of course, the procession was kept interesting by the one unruly horse. Heh. I thought it was going to leave and go home at one point. > What an entrance she made.

Not that I'm in agreement with the giving the bride away thing but it's a tradition to walk down the aisle on Dad's arm. nancy |

It has been an interesting experience. Women have made a lot of advances in the work force and government over the last 50 years. Over the last week they have been fixated on a royal wedding, which usually involves a young woman becoming a princess or queen. I didn't get up early to watch the wedding but I did roll out of bed in time to join my wife in watching the procession and saw the many thousands and thousands of people lining the streets to catch a peek of the royal newlyweds. |
