This Recipe Is Bananas!

Yum.
After posting my first post related to something I baked, I discovered one of the advantages of such a post: lots of photos, and we all know that people love to look at photos, which is why those look-what-I-wore-today fashion blogs are so popular.

One of the disadvantages of such a post: lots of photos, because it's sometimes a pain in the ass to stopping every step of the alchemy that is baking in order to photograph the evidence.

In my previous baking post I discussed making Rice Krispies treats using Cocoa Krispies, a recipe that almost any idiot can pull off. Today I'd like to tell you about another treat that I made only twice in my life, but each instance resulted in a bit of banana-y bliss.

What's Cooking? Glad You Asked!

I noticed that several of these Web logs, also known as "blogs," provide evidence of the ability of the writer to perform culinary tasks of varying degrees of difficulty. Today I will attempt to do the same.

This is not a closeup of stuff scraped out of arteries from an anti-smoking commercial.
A number of blogs, particularly the fashion blogs I discussed in a previous post, include recipes, but their posts almost always have what I lack:
  • A clean kitchen
  • Great photography
  • Food that's worthy of that photography, which is always coffee-table-cookbook ready
With that being said, one of my interests — "hobbies," if you will — is cooking, especially baking.

Have I whetted your appetite? (See what I did there?) If so, read on!
