Better banana bread

I took a very basic banana bread recipe and modified it.   I substituted coconut oil for the butter, agave for the sugar and gluten free flour for the AP flour.  Very happy with the results, a beautiful top and very good banana flavor. 

3 wonderful years young

We all had such an amazing time celebrating Sages 3rd birthday.   She helped me make the cake.  The poor little girl received lots of clothes and jammies since her birthday comes less than a month after Christmas.

mall cops

We have a new favorite activity.  Two rocking Fridays in a row now the trio has hit THE MALL!  And in a move that made this mom so proud my daughter was told not to do something by a mall cop, and my 3 year old was not afraid of authority.  She takes after her mom.

hello how are ya have ya been alright

Turns out I experienced a life change.  Three years ago I had a baby, most of it has been a wonderful blur of "was i a good mom in three most important years of her life?'   She has become quite a little girl. And her sense of imagination is growing so rapidly that bad dreams are visiting often.  Monkeys and spiders replaced demands for junk food during the early morning hours that she is waking up during.  I always almost say "Im here" even before she has said a word.
