Note To Self: Learn To Fold In Flour

I had this great idea today to make banana bread. Remember the old time recipe book that I found while looking for yard sale stuff?? A good recipe is in the book and since I have some old 'nanas, thought it would be a good idea.

All went well. Two bowls, one for the 'wet' stuff and one for the 'dry' stuff. So, I thought it would be a better idea to add the flour mix (salt, baking soda, baking powder) to the egg, oil and sugar mix.

Bad, really bad idea.

The flour poofed out in one lump and sort of wafted about the kitchen. Then when I tried to get it mixed up asap, more flour went airborne.

I now have a fine, fine layer of white stuff all over the kitchen, me too. Hubby so helpfully pointed this out. Rubbing my face, welp, my hand came away with just a little white.

Still, all in all, the 'nana bread came out of the over in fine shape and I'm waiting for it to cool. Looks good. Really puffed up and nicely brown.

I'll let you know how it tastes!
