It’s hard to beat a sweet treat every now and then:
One of my favorite treats as a kid was sliced bananas with sugar (or sprinkles – sprinkles are always good, too), so when Seymour brought home a couple of green bunches last week, I couldn’t wait to dig in. But then, of course, we headed out to the hospital before they’d ripened, and before I knew it they were starting to spot.
So this morning, I dug in. And they tasted every bit as sweet as I could have hoped. You slice up the bananas into a bowl, sprinkle a quantity of sugar over them, then stir it all up. The sugar and the banana secretions (for lack of a better word) combine to form a syrup, and it’s a little bowl of heaven.
What are some of your favorite childhood treats?

Caramelising the sugar with a blowtorch will also take you to heaven! 😉

I’ve not tried that. The last time I made caramel, though, I screwed up the recipe and it turned out reeeeeeally rich. But it’s been a while since I did that. Mmm, caramel…om nom nom! 🙂
