Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipe

July 24, 2013 by Ashley 5 Comments

We tend to be a little slow when it comes to eating all of the bananas in the house.  We had four bananas that were overly ripe.  So, I knew that meant it was time for some Banana Bread.  I have always loved banana bread, but I wanted to change it up this time so I substituted the walnuts for semi-sweet chocolate chips and chocolate chip banana bread was born.  Viola!

In the recipe listed below I also included it with walnuts because I know it would be great with both.  At the time we didn’t have any at home and I was too lazy to go buy just that from the grocery store, but you can bet that the next time our bananas get over ripe I will be making it with both!

I would love to hear if you used this recipe or made any changes!  Leave a little love and I hope you love the bread as much as I did.

Work And Sunsets- A Wordless Wednesday Post

July 17, 2013 by Ashley Leave a Comment

This week as my last minute Wordless Wednesday post I thought I would share with you all a couple of pictures that I have taken in the past couple of weeks outside of my work.   I managed to snap two beautiful sunset pictures as I left work the last two Mondays leaving the office around 9PM EST.  The final picture is one ofthe building that I work in.  You can even see the windows to our office.  🙂  I hope you enjoy.

Things To Do On A Rainy Day- Wordless Wednesday

July 10, 2013 by Ashley 1 Comment

This weeks theme for the Wordless Wednesday is coming to you thanks to the Trash Can Bloggers and it is…

*drum roll please*

Things To Do On A Rainy Day!

rainy day

Idea #1: Play with your pets! They will always love the play time, attention, and love you give them.  With a house full of pets there is always one begging for attention.

Idea #2: Music.  Spend some time listening to music or playing your favorite instrument.  If you don’t know how to play an instrument this is the best time to sit down to learn.

Idea #3: Make a treat for the family.  We had bananas that were over ripe and that meant Banana Bread! Yum.  If you have a bread machine this is even better during the hot summer months because it prevents you from turning the oven on which heats up the house.

There are many other things that you could do on a rainy day.  These are just a few of my favorite things to do.  They also happen to be  a few things that we have been doing since there has been so much rain here in Michigan.  I have noticed that really the whole Midwest has been hit pretty hard with a lot of rain and storms.

What does your family do on rainy days?
