The Perfect Banana Bread

October 7, 2018October 7, 2018 / carlibdesai / 1 Comment

While I was looking for the perfect banana bread recipe to keep my kids busy for a bit and use up some brown bananas, it didn’t occur to me that my baking element would have anything to do with it.  But there in her notes, she said to use a light colored pan as opposed to a dark or glass …

Meet Carli

 

Hello hello!  I’m Carli.  I’m a SAHM of 3 kids under the age of 6 and I’m just so excited that you’re here!  I write about being a mom, dressing our mom bods, decorating along with a little DIY and baking sweet treats in the kitchen – just adding a little touch of order and style to your normal every day chaos.

 This makes my creator heart happy. Made by my 4 year old. She requested I help her pick out some of the colors she needed but the design and the final placement was all her. Love seeing the kids’ little maker minds in action! I’m also feeling totally nostalgic over #perlerbeadart  takes me back!  There is nothing wrong with your body even though it may be bigger than others. The size of your body does not define you. It does not make you a better or worse person. Your body is the same in jeans as it is in a skirt. Wear what you want. Be loud. Be bold. Be yourself with no apologies. Your body, though a little on the plus side, is actually the smallest part of who you are as a person. Smile. Own who you are. - This is the pep talk I gave myself before meeting some new people last week. I don’t remember what I used to say to myself when I was in a smaller body. It was probably along the lines of not saying things to make myself look foolish, attempting to be the appropriate mix of desirable and approachable, I have no idea, now, but rest assured, certain insecurities were always there. It’s funny to not even remember something that I’m sure was such a huge part of my life at the time. - It feels like it all comes down to this - no one wants to be judged, no one wants to feel out of place, everyone wants to feel like they matter. Let’s all agree to show a little grace, starting with ourselves. You matter. You are amazing and unique regardless of your shape, size or color. Cheers to you. To me. To us.
 My Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse and Goofy who wouldn’t wear his vest or hat. 🤷‍♀️ #primary #primarycostumes2019  You probably already know that walnuts are an excellent brain food (that’s why they look like little brains) but if you don’t like them plain (or even if you do), I’ve got a fun recipe for you to try! Honey-Glazed Walnuts with Cinnamon Spice. Super simple! Here’s what you do: Preheat oven to 325 In a medium bowl, mix 1/4 cup raw honey, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp ground cayenne with a fork. Dump 1 1/2 cups walnuts on top and continue to mix with the fork until they are well coated. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, spread walnuts in a single layer and bake for 10 minutes. My recipe says to let cook and then break apart into bite size pieces but I’ve made these twice and both times, they have ended up kind of sticky as opposed to having a hard shell. They’re still delicious so I don’t mind. I just line a Tupperware with a clean sheet of parchment paper and store them in there when they’re cooled down. You can store them in your fridge for up to two weeks but I guarantee they won’t last you that long! Makes 4 servings. Treat yourself! - Recipe from the book: Anti-inflammatory Eating for a Happy, Healthy Brain by Michelle Babb, MS, RD, CD
