Baker's Corner - Banana Bread

I am in love with this banana bread. The recipe comes from my grandmother. I substituted regular milk instead of sour milk, but if you want to do the sour milk add 1/2 tsp lemon juice to your recipe.

My goal for the week was to bake at least one thing from scratch. I ended up making this again because I have so many bananas.

Banana Bread

1 tbsp butter
2 eggs
3 tbsp sour milk
1 level tsp baking soda
2 cups flour
3 mashed bananas
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 cup sugar

Mix together dry then wet ingredients. Bake for 1 hour at 350 in a greased pan,

Frugal Friday- Memory Lane

My grandparents farm When I was young, I never fully appreciated the lessons in frugality that my parents and grandparents practiced. My grandparents owned a dairy farm, always had large garden, and had their own pigs and chickens. Up until I was a teenager we ended up getting all of our meat, and milk from them. I never thought of meat or milk as something that comes from a grocery store. My mom, except for a short time when we were young was a stay at home mom. She baked everyday, and for a few years even baked all of our bread. She taught me how to pinch pennies both directly and indirectly. She allowed me to watch her put together a budget, pay bills, and grocery shop with her. There was six of us in our family and she had forty dollar weekly grocery budget. This was super difficult even though this happened over twenty years ago. Yet she made it work. Twenty years later, I am the one with a family of six. My challenges are...

Meal Plan Monday- ( Dinner and Snacks) Week of 2/29/6

Over the weekend I found great sale on chicken at Stop and Shop, $.88/lb. I also managed to get a great deal on frozen turkey breast, $ .99/lb. It may sound strange, but I have never actually made roast chicken before. I usually just buy the frozen chicken breasts. I hope it turns out well, and the family likes it. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Here is my plan of action for dinner this week. I’m hoping to score some favorites this week. Dinner Plan Monday- Roast Chicken and Vegetables Tuesday- Spaghetti and meatballs and salad Wednesday- Chicken quesadillas and corn Thursday- Sandwiches (made to order) Friday- Goulash Saturday- Pizza -------------------- Goulash 1 pound ground beef 1 small onion chopped 1 can diced tomatoes drained 1lb box macaroni cooked Sauté onion, brown ground beef, combines with macaroni, and diced tomatoes.
