We are going away for the weekend, and I found bananas that I nearly deemed "too old even for banana bread." I was set to throw them out, but my sister pointed out that they were "perfect for banana bread" and she peeled them for me as I declared them "too gross". So, then we were going to make banana bread, but we have just enough milk for tea in Jamie's travel mug tomorrow (she is driving, I am not, she gets the caffeine). And then I had a brilliant idea: Sour Cream Banana Bread. I know have Sour Cream Banana Cake from Epicurious in the oven, and am hoping it is delicious. I will be making sour cream cream cheese frosting in a moment. _

Beach vacation in the works...We have finally figured out where we are going. It's been a while, and many locations have been suggested, basically anywhere from Maine to Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico was ultimately nixed because my mom, who is the only one in the family to have ever  been to Puerto Rico in July declared it "so hot, Tori, that not one of us girls will be able to handle it"). We had largely settled on the Cape, Deleware, or the Outer Banks, and we have finally wound up in the Outer Banks, mostly, I think, because the house is on the water (it is the house we stayed at a few years ago, and there is a private deck on the dunes that is the separation of house and beach), and because someone had cancelled at the last minute. Shockingly, trying to find a beach house just over a month away from your planned vacation during the week of the 4th of July is really really hard. And now the house has central air. It didn't when we stayed there a few years ago. When I spoke with the rental guy, he promised that in the remodel they put in central air, which had been our only complaint about the place. Yay! Beach! _

Moving again. ((sigh)) The new house is beautiful, and the neighborhood is lovely. Also, will probably be a longer move, no more of this "let's move every four months" thing. _
