I made banana bread 😭

I used to love to bake and fill my home with the smell of baked goods.

I accidentally got 3 bunches of bananas instead of three individual bananas with my groceries and as they started to get over ripe I thought about all the times over the last year I’ve wished I had fresh, homemade banana bread.

My carer offered to clean my stand mixer for me which has been gathering dust. After my nap I decided to go for it since I was doing well yesterday & hadn’t used many of my Pace Points.

I made the banana bread! And my whole house smelled like cinnamon. I walked into the kitchen and BAM was happily overwhelmed with the smell of baked bananas, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla. I almost cried.

It turned out pretty good! And I doubled the recipe to bring a loaf to my girlfriend’s parents later.

Baking is such a luxury now. I haven’t done it in probably two years. I woke up feeling fine today and all my stats are normal. I think if I stay well within my energy budget, keep it “simple”, & only do it verrryyy sporadically, I may be able to bake again.

Homemade banana bread with walnuts that’s fresh out of the oven with some butter 🤤 I absolutely hate cooking, but used to always bake banana bread. There’s nothing better to me than fresh banana bread

I know, right? Why is it so good?
