Sitting in the kitchen watching the bananas ripen and all I kept
thinking was banana bread. It's my go to recipe when the kids haven't
eaten them all. I wanted to try something new. I thought about frying
them with a honey glaze, which would have been just as good as the next
idea.
I called a kiddo in for help since I was also making
dinner when this thought occurred. Banana Empanada, nope never made it
before. The look on the kiddo's face when the dough formed into a ball
in the food processor was priceless. All he could keep saying was
awesome!
I was rolling out the dough & kept being
asked how much of this? how much of this? I should've helped more since
the end result was for the kiddo not to measure, but to just dump brown
sugar into a bowl along with the bananas and he mixed until it was soup.
We finished making them anyway and laughed so hard when I finally
blurted out "I will never make these again", only to take it back after
eating one. Next time I will not be asking for assistance so I can find
out how wonderful they should be. It was an experience to say the least.

I found a pattern for Queen Anne's
Lace. I haven't decided if it will be a bookmark, a bracelet, a little
something extra for a future bag, or a new headband. Whatever it turns
out to be will look great though!

May all your experiences end in laughter!
