oh, nuts....

Since I don't have the gang at Green Mesquite to bake for any more, I've started baking batches of banana bread for the guys in my group at work. At first, I would sneak loaves in and place them by the coffee pot. Everyone thought the banana bread fairy had paid a visit. Finally the secret was out. One guy was so taken by the bread that he had his wife pick up a bag of nuts for the cause. His wife had picked up 2 types of nuts. He asked me if I had used walnuts or pecans. If I was the bread nazi, I would have said "No bread for you." He thought I may have used walnuts? yikes. I calmed down, accepted his gift of pecans and let him keep his walnuts. He will also receive his own mini loaf in the morning. yum
