Banana Bread Disaster

I took a stab at being supermom today and kind of fell flat on my face.

Let me explain: K & P are registered for 2 weeks worth of Monday to Friday lessons.  Which is great except the lessons start at 5:30 pm.  That's half an hour after we sit down to eat and a mere 1.5 hours before their bedtime.  Eek!  In preparation for the chaos I decided to bake some banana bread so my water logged children would have a snack after swimming.  No worries, right?  I got the bread in the oven with lots of time to spare, only it didn't bake.  ARGH!  They had supper at 4 so there would be plenty of time to eat before we needed to rush out of the house and brave the rush hour traffic to get to the pool.

Half an hour after the the banana bread should have been ready the thin knife I use for testing came out clean.  Woohoo!  Then, when I tried to turn it out on to the cooling rack, disaster struck.
The inside of my banana bread fell out of the pan and made this mess.  And left me with:
Isn't that depressing?  I ended up tearing the shell of the banana bread into pieces for the post-swim snack.  K & P didn't seem to notice.
I think tomorrow I'll try some muffins.

Oh NO! What a pain. I just hate it when I work at something and it falls apart.

I have a really good muffin recipe going up on my blog tomorrow morning... :) Maybe try that.

I just looked at the recipe and they sound heavenly! Looks like the kids will be snacking on some muffins tonight. :)
