AlgaeGirl's Notizen, 07 Feb 11

I got in my workout, did my laundry and made it to the grocery store! It just felt like the kind of day where I could do anything! *bwah ha ha*

Once all the little errands were run and I was nicely finished my workout, I headed into the kitchen for a little something, something. There on the counter were three very black, very ripe bananas. So I did what any girl with an afternoon to kill and some over-ripe bananas would do - I made banana bread! But it didn't stop there! In the spirit of Valentine's Day, I also made a lemon raspberry loaf.

Now, banana bread I make quite often. (Maybe I should stop buying so many bananas...but if I don't buy a lot, Ian eats the lot and there are none for me...a few extra, and there I am, baking again!) It's delicious and soft...with walnuts and this particular batch has peanut butter chips in it. (Mmmmm....peanut butter and banana!) But I had never made the lemon raspberry loaf before. The recipe was dead simple - flour, sugar, baking soda and baking powder, low-fat lemon yogurt, vegetable oil, egg and egg whites, raspberries. I was a bit concerned because it's supposed to bake twice as long as my banana bread, but the loaf isn't really that much bigger. Well, it's baking in the oven right now...and it should be done in the next fifteen or so minutes. (Thankfully I set the kitchen timer so I don't have to worry about when to take it out.)

I think Monday might become baking day...trying out recipes that I haven't made before. Usually I don't bake because it requires such precise measurements - unlike cooking, where I can add a pinch of this or a dash of that and substitute to my heart's content without really messing up the final result. But my last few attempts at baking have turned out pretty good - cranberry scones (though I think I'll use a smidge less buttermilk next time - my dough was a little *too* sticky) and oatmeal peanut butter cookies.

Well...this should be interesting!
