Up! Coping with early morning boredom · Mar 16, 03:00 PM

What can you do when the alarm wakes you on a Sunday morning and you can’t get back to sleep? I chose to bake.

My OH had kindly got in the ingredients to make use of some old bananas in a banana cake, after I had mentioned that my Mum made a particularly tasty one. Seeing the bananas and eggs in the kitchen at 6AM I decided I would go ahead and make the cake.

I searched on the net for a suitable recipe and found loads. The most accessible one was from a site called Nibblous which had a pleasant home-baked look to it, and lots of interesting recipes.

The cake was very moist and dense, which is a good thing, because the children all turned their noses up at it (not being banana fans), and OH is on a strict diet. It’s just as well it’s moist because it will probably last me until Tuesday at least!
