I've never had banana bread, but had banana sandwich instead! I'll go for the first haiku, Charm. Regards // paul

His banana bread made me smirk, sorry it's been one of those weeks. :) I'm not a big banana fan but you could convert me. :)

Each of these is sweet in it's own delicious way. I am very fond of banana bread but now perhaps even more so. I like the comparisons here as each stands on its own, but all are related to a delicious poetic theme. You sure did bake the perfect dessert with your words in this one Charmaine. Now some coffee would be nice too. :)

oh wow snicker doodles they are delicious - our American friend Mary used to bake them for us before she had a stroke and had to give up her baking business - you brought back great memories:-) hugs jan xxx
