looking at the old bananas here yesterday
decided to make cake
rather than waste them
looks for a recipe
oh yes that will
do with oil
so **** the mashed bananas in the bowl
three with equal eggs
to find i have no oil
another recipe with margarine
when i only have spreadβ¦..ok
oh no, it states only
2 bananas
2 eggs
too late
this one is in metric
my scales are in imperial
another recipe
by then is all in the bowl
when i reads to cream the marg and sugar
too late i just bash the lot together and throw
in sultanas for luck
with the big silver spoon
lucky me
my oven is hot electric fan
the book goes gas, so guessing
works and that thing with a knitting needle
all came good, my first cake to eat for ten weeks
buns donβt count in this house
first cake made for years
to adhere to lockdown urban rules
ate with cream of course
then carried on with ladders
there was a storm in the night
water seeped through the bathroom
roof light
soaked the tissue
it is drying out on the radiator
james
no planes yesterday
