banana nut bonanza

the other night i wanted to use our last few bananas and make banana nut bread out of them. jeff was hanging around, so i told him i would let him make his first loaf of banana nut bread and that i would guide him through it. the measuring and mixing went fine - he got the mixture into the loaf pan and into the oven. after 45 minutes in the oven, it was time to take the bread out. i told jeff to let it cool down, so he decided to put it upside down on the cooling rack. of course, he is impatient so he shook the pan and it threw up. the insides of the bread exploded all over the kitchen and i burnt my fingers trying to pick them up. this marks jeff's first and probably last loaf... almost jeff. but not quite.

the guts we piled up and ate by little handfuls.

the "outer crust" that was left over. a deep, empty crust.
