Banana bread, mailboxes and cuteness

I have banana bread issues.
Really.
I can not for the life of me
bake banana bread to perfection.

I've tried lots of different recipes.
It's not my oven,
I've tried making it in 3 different ovens
:D
I've tried lowering the oven temp.
I've tried raising it.
I've baked it for longer than the recipe calls for.
I've baked it shorter.

EACH
and EVERY
time
they turn out golden brown on the outside
(sometimes even burnt!)
and undercooked on the inside.
Even though the toothpick comes out clean.

Seriously.
What is my problem?
Banana muffins I can do.
Banana bread- not a chance.
And like a crazy person I keep trying... expecting different results.
I WILL NOT give up on you banana bread.
One day....

On a happier note, see this ugly mailbox:


It's getting a facelift this weekend!

Oh, and I just had to include this cutie.
She just makes me smile.


Happy weekend everyone!

  1. I hear ya. It's not banana bread I have issues with (sorry, no suggestions! I don't make it often enough!), but baking in general. It seems that if it should be sweet and delicious I fail at it. :S

  2. i can't bake, BUT my banana bread always turns out fine.

    maybe banana bread is afraid of bakers?

    what's your address (accidentally tossed it)so i can put some mail in your new improved box :-)
