banana bread to white trash

After a lovely weekend, it´s Monday again and so I´m whippin´up some new fixins. I´ve got four beeeeyoutiful ripe bananas and I am itching to make some banana nut bread with my California walnuts I got at the specialty store. I don´t know of any good recipes out there, nor do I trust any of them, cause I always used the River Road version from the Junior League. I was hoping to find a recipe posted on the internet from the cookbook which brought me to the Amazon webpage. When you look at a book online they have suggestions for what other readers bought and I saw titles like Talk about Good, and then I saw something else that caught my eye-White Trash Cookin´. Yes it was a real book. I got to look inside and saw some of the recipe for down home favorites like Fried Squirrel, Uncle Willie´s Swamp Stew, Butt´s Alligator Tail, Betty Sue´s Fried Okra, Betty Sue´s Sister in Law´s Fried Eggplant, and Mrs. Arnold´s Saturday Night Shrimps. No lie. I got a big kick out of this.

.....Which led me to another book..... ¨Ruby Ann´s Down Home Trailer Park Cookbook¨ I thought I was going to have an accident reading this it was so funny. She says, ¨Back home in Arkansas we don´t have shrimp like that, so I tell you what I do- I shape up some spam like shrimps and put a little fish oil on that- you talk about GOOOOD!¨ CLICK HERE!!! She´s a trailer park woman, a mobile home princess. She has a webpage. Y´all should check it out. http://www.myspace.com/rubyannboxcar

I finally got my banana bread recipe and here´s how it turned out. I made two batches.
