Banana-Nut cookies= best thing to set foot in my mouth




So on Friday Curtis and i went through our freezer because something was starting to stink, and in the process we found some frozen bananas that we had both forgot about. Curtis' mom had gotten them and had given them to us right before we were gonna go on our vacation to Utah for almost 2 weeks so i just threw them in a Ziploc bag and forgot about them until we discovered them. Curtis tried throwing them away but i could not pass up the opportunity to make some of my Great Grandma Wilhite's Banana-Nut cookies. I had planned on making them that night but I kinda fell asleep while Curtis was playing Star-Craft 2 (I have no idea how i let him talk me into letting him get it) and didn't wake up until 6 and I didn't feel like cooking so we went to this little BBQ place in town called All Slabbed Up which by the way was very tasty but that is another story. So i had planned on making the cookies on Saturday but that didn't happen because it more or less turned into a cleaning/lounge day and I didn't really feel like baking anything so yet again the cookies got pushed back another day. I had planned on making the cookies before church since we moved to the later block in the beginning of August so i would have had plenty of time to make them but once again I didn't feel like baking but i knew that it had to get done because my fridge was starting to smell like VERY ripe bananas.. (not to pleasing if  you ask me!) so after church we went to Curtis' parents for dinner and almost right after Curtis had to leave for a Priesthood Fireside so I decided that it would be a good time to finally make my cookies. I changed into some comfy clothes and even decided to wear the apron that one of my aunts made me ( it is the same style that Grandma Wilhite used to wear, its just a normal looking apron except it doesn't have a tie around the neck she just used to safety pin it to her shirt.) I popped in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in the the VCR and went away on my cooking frenzy. They turned out sooooooo good.. I also had a bag of zucchini (I got the zucchini from my mom last year from her garden, it was massively huge so i got enough zucchini out of it to make 6 batches out of it.) that was sitting in our fridge that had the same sentencing as the banana's so i decided that i would make some zucchini bread as soon as my cookie dough was finished.. I quickly washed the bowl and started making some yummy zucchini bread. Curtis came home to a yummy smelling house where he ate a few cookies them promptly went to his computer so he could do somethings and is currently playing his LAME game.
