My brother Johnny's birthday was on Tuesday, so we decided to celebrate by having one of his favorite meals last night....tacos. Johnny, my sister-in-law, Abby, and my cousins Karl, Claudine and Holly came for dinner. It was a nice, low-key night with lots of laughs and delicious food. Johnny is not one for birthday cake but is a huge fan of banana bread. Holly won't eat anything called bread, so instead, we were calling it banana cake. I think she was upset that there was no icing! As soon as we sung Happy Birthday, she just started yelling, "I need a plate! I need a plate!" HILARIOUS! I used Martha Stewart's recipe for banana bread but ommitted the walnuts since Abby is allergic to nuts...I think I like it better without the nuts. Also, I added cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. I like it a little spicier...
Banana "cake" all ready for singing.
Can you see all of those delicious spices?
Holly was excited to sing! She did a great job helping Johnny blow out the candles.
The table all set for dinner...
Happy Birthday, Johnny. Love you!
