banana.bread.and.cookies.

We really needed to make some room in the freezer since i've used up most of it with my soup, so i made banana bread with the eleven frozen bananas that have been in there for a while. I always double whatever recipe i'm making. I figure if i'm cooking, i may as well get as much out of it as i can. Plus, my mixer's big, and doesn't like when i mix small amounts of stuff in it. I'm always trying new banana bread recipes, but i liked the one i used last time, so used it again. Apparently i actually looked at the recipe before i made it the first time, and made a single batch since it was pretty big. This time i wasn't so lucky. I doubled it without thinking, and even with my super large bowl, it barely made it. The batter was up to the rim, and i had to manually stir it to get the edges incorporated. I have four big loaves, and there was only a little unmixed butter/sugar that spotted it. It tastes delicious, which is all i care about. I also made chocolate chip cookies. Since i don't want them all sitting around since i'll eat them, i'll mail some out to whoever comments first (if i know you). Maybe the first three people, actually. They won't go out until friday, so hopefully they won't be stale by the time you get them (especially if you live in california).
