Best Fucken Ever Banana Bread

best fucken ever banana bread!

This is not just any banana bread recipe. This is like, the banana bread that God would eat if he was all like, "Jesus, I am staaaarrrrvving." and Jesus was all, "HOLD ON. WAIT A MINUTE. HAVE I GOT A TREAT FOR YOU."

Anyways. My mom has been making Best Ever Banana Bread for years, so I took her recipe and just kind of added little extras to it. I totally suggest any and all of you make it for your nearest and dearest, or perhaps just for yourself, if you are a loaf-loving social reject, during this glorious holiday season. Better yet, cook some loaves or muffins, attach this recipe to it, and give it out as a present, or possibly as a donation for a church bake sale.

Those church ladies, they will fucken love the Best Fucken Ever Banana Bread.

Le Recipe:
(everything in italics is stuff I added on to the recipe. I am way too proud of my time spent on concocting this culinary marvel.)

1 cup butter or marjarine (you can substitute 1/4 cup marj + 3/4 applesauce)
2 cups sugar
3 cups mashed ripe bananas (roughly 6)
4 eggs, well beaten
2 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp allspice or whatever feels right. Don't be the retard who dumps half the container in. WE ALL LEARNED A LITTLE SOMETHING THAT DAY.
1 dash of cinnamon
1 cup of frozen blueberries
1 half cup of chocolate chips
1 cup frozen raspberries


1. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
2. Add the rest, mix it all in. Don't be shy.
3. Bake at 350 degrees for 55 minutes to an hour, may be slightly longer if you make loaves.

It makes two loaves, or one loaf and 12 muffins, or 24 muffins. You can also mix up the amounts of blueberries, raspberries and chocolate chips you put in.

ImageHi. My name is Sarah
and I live by the sea. I like pirates and vikings and my audio cassette tape player. I am 25 years old and pretty much covered in sand all the time. Also, I like cookies. My profile.

ImageHey Sarah, what are ye listening to?
Lots and lots o' stuff, like St. Germain's "So Flute" and "Ghosts" by Ladytron. I can't believe Robyn is out with new stuff and it doesn't make me want to show her love by jabbing rusted forks into my eyes. It's actually really catchy and kind of endearing. I have been looking up the songs from So You Think You Can Dance all year, too, because it's all awesome and at heart, I'm still a spandexed little dancer ready to punch Annie in the face and show Daddy Warbucks a thing or two about tap musicals.

ImageI'M READING:
Walking Dead:

    Frigging awesome. One of the best books about the Zombocalypse I've ever read (one of the only good books about the Zombpocalypse I've ever read). I think there's something about zombies that is so hard to construe via text ... I mean, honestly, you can only use the word "purtrid" so much, and the visual, awesome aid of comics really helps.

ImageI'M SEEING:
Quarantine, a movie that's kind of the equivalent to being on the Disney spinning teacup ride, except, also, there are RABID ZOMBIES ON BOARD. Honestly, I missed quite a bit of this movie because I spent a good portion of it with my head nestled into my boyfriend's armpit attempting not to vomit. The camera movement is, at times, insanely choppy and all over the place, and those of you prone to motion sickness, you might want to skip this one. I'd give it about 2 1/2 stars out of 5, because it's decent -- I'd even watch it again if I could keep the room from spinning.

ImageBOOK CLUB!:
The Kite Runner. I love this book. It wasn't necessarily a book I'd choose to read (these days I appear to be more interested in books geared towards teenage girls.), but I'm so glad I did. Beautiful writing. Next choice... I'm going to volunteer the Bell Jar because IT'S THE BEST BOOK EVER.
