My brother in law made it. Man was amazing. The outside was slightly crunchy and had kinda caramelised a bit. The inside was soft. There were walnuts through it
I babysit for my sister and brother in law. I don’t ask for money but like today now and then I get a free cake or two!
In addition my side effects from the vaccine have lessoned and am feeling a lot better. Might have been the sugar rush from the cake
My friend said he was at a party in his early 20’s. Someone had made a loaf of home-made bread and his pal was really hungry.
But he drank way too much and just before his buddy passed out he yelled…
"Home-a-Loaf!"
Then he did a faceplant on the couch and passed out. 
I thought the story was so funny, I actually say the term “Home-a-Loaf” when I’m pulling into the driveway from a car ride with the family.
It’s my silly way of saying ‘we’re home’.
Patrick you have so many good stories. You should write a musical and include some of the stories
Thanks @Jimbob!
Yeah. I seem to have a knack for remembering every funny thing that has happened to me or others over the years.
I have good recall for humorous events. My buddies tell me the same thing…that I’m always bringing up funny stories from my past.

I want to make this, but must buy ripe bananas and other ingredients.
Now I’m craving banana bread.
I keep meaning to make banana bread, but bananas never last long enough in this house to get properly ripe. Starlet prefers them green (ew) and I am lucky if I can even get one that is properly yellow;
I’m with starlet, I like my bananas a little green.
Banana bread is the best! Especially when someone else makes them for you. You feel so much love. Yum
I vote for making more banana bread.
That is exactly what happened today. My brother in law specifically set out just to bake me banana bread. I was very touched
It is very brave to admit when you are wrong. 
Is there something I’m missing? I don’t get the humor in “Home-a-Loaf” Is it like another saying?
My friend’s pal was so drunk and he wanted a loaf of home-made bread.
Instead, he just yelled out ‘Home-a-Loaf’…then faceplanted on the couch and passed out.
I found it very funny.
