Banana Fritters

Sunday morning, once again my son decided to wake me up at 5 am. I wasn't too sure what I was going to feed him. I realized we had 4 over ripe bananas. I decided to make some banana fritters. I have never made it for my family so I was not too sure if they would like it but since it's over ripe, nobody was going to eat it. My son did not care for it at all, he did try it so I was pleased with that. My husband liked it and I gave some to a friend of mine who I went to the farmers market with today. If you have any over ripe bananas, try the banana fritters. Here's what you do:

1. First mash the bananas.
   
2. Add a little sugar and flour till the mixture is a little doughy
3. Use a spoon to scoop it into hot frying oil.
4. Fry it till it's golden brown or when you think it's cooked.

Give it a try and tell me what you think of it. Hope to hear from you soon.

Autumn Eats

I love Sunday mornings. I love going to the farmers market and seeing the fresh fruits and vegetables, the beautiful, colorful flowers. It makes me want to cook and live healthy. I love the feel of the cold weather because you know fall is here. After buying a bunch of vegetables and fruits, hoping I'll eat it before it rots in the fridge. I drive home noticing the changing color of the leaves. It hits me again that fall is here. Then I reach home and reality strikes me that I don't really cook well and junk food last longer then fresh food. Tonight after chopping and peeling the beautiful fresh and healthy vegetables that I bought today. My son decided that he didn't want to eat what I cooked, and threw a tantrum because we wanted him to eat what I had prepared. I hate to admit that I never have to force my son to eat junk food. It's sooo much easier to eat crappy food. But for now I'm determine to try and teach my son to eat what the earth can provide for us. Another day of promising myself that I will try to feed my family healthy and fresh food.
