Thank you, jaycee. I had been looking for the right graphic for Diana’s song, and just found it last week.
Sunnyside up. :)
Thanks, yorkie - I’m glad you enjoyed it. Now your picture.......oh my - that looks like something ‘right out of’ The Bachelor! :) Isn’t that romantic!
Thanks, Amy - I’m glad to finally get to use the song. Sometimes things just fall into place. (I’ll be sending you FR mail later this evening)
You called? :)
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe banana (about 3 bananas)
1/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
3 tablespoons dark rum
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup flaked sweetened coconut
Cooking spray
1 tablespoon flaked sweetened coconut
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime or lemon juice
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350°
Lightly spoon the flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring with a whisk to combine.
Place granulated sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until well blended (about 1 minute). Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add banana, yogurt, rum, and vanilla; beat until blended. Add flour mixture; beat at low speed just until moist. Stir in 1/2 cup coconut. Spoon batter into a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon coconut. Bake at 350° for 1 hour or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan on a wire rack; remove from pan. Combine powdered sugar and juice, stirring with a whisk; drizzle over warm bread. Cool bread completely on wire rack
I’ve been trying to get Quick Books to work all day. I finally have all of the updates installed and have guessed my passwork correctly. :^ )
Have I mentioned that I dislike this time of the year? With quarter end, year end, property tax forms etc, I seem to get overwhelmed. If I didn’t play all year, I wouldn’t get myself buried in this paperwork.
I will get back later to try to answer some pings.
Did I thank you for today’s Opening?
Oh well ... no such thing as too many thank yous, so .... Thank You for today’s Graphics .... the Opening and the Holiday graphics.
Yes, you did with a pretty bouquet, too. :)

Dinnertime here - have to go - back later this evening. :)
Thank you, Jaycee.
We didn’t have a very sunny day but it was a beautiful day with highs in the 60’s.
Marissa has finished her homework and is out with the dogs for her (almost) daily visit.

This is a beautiful graphic, Meg. Thank you.
Snow on tulips ... very unusual. I’m ready for spring.
LOL
Well that looks like the perfect graphic is there was a song called, “The Best Night of My Life”.
LOL
Good evening, LadyJ. It’s always good to see your cute/funny graphics. Thank you.
Hope your Monday didn’t include any mousetraps.
Ahhh ... what a sweet find .... thank you , Jaycee.

Now... why doesn’t that surprise me?
LOL
late afternoon greetings, Amy. Just had a super downpour a little while ago.
Tomorrow, I’ll be surrounded by greatness... Got an appt at the VA Clinic in Livermore. Went to the Palo Alto Center in Oct and I felt overwhelmed to be in the presence of so many American Heroes.
