Banana Bread

Banana Bread with tea is always a good treat on a cool, Fall day.

Can I tempt you

This one has lots of walnuts in it or on it. You choose.

My Fall tea-cup is out of the cupboard and close at hand now.

The sun is shining and I'm gearing up to start my 5 km walk again today. First, I visit Bud and Chase and get them comfortable for their day.
They are such posers.
They will be window gazing all day as the squirrels and birds tease the heck out of them.

Have fun guys. Daddy will be home in the flick of a tail.

hugs, Deb
