I didn’t want to take bananas on a road trip and there would be no one home to eat them. But, I also knew Colby would be back a day earlier than us… and would commence to cleaning.
So, I left him a note by the bananas – realizing they would be very ripe when he finally got home – and asked him not to throw them away.
They would be perfect for Banana Nut Bread by the time we all got home. I was so right!
