Super Delicious Mistake

So today was a rather uneventful day. I attempted to make banana bread. I doubled the recipe, in hopes of bringing some bread to work tomorrow. The first loaf did not rise at all, notifying me that I had written down the recipe incorrectly and that I had omitted the baking soda. Terrible move on my part. So for the second loaf I added the necessary soda, and hoped it would bake correctly. Sadly this one did the opposite, it nearly exploded. Lovely, just lovely.Brian decided he'd eat it anyway, I tried the first loaf and realized it sucked majorly. It was so sweet I think I got diabetes from my first and only bite. I had added extra vanilla and a teaspoon of cinnamon to give it a little snap- which worked, had it baked correctly.
I LOVE this recipe and usually it works fantastic, I've made it about 100 times- and it's only screwed up twice, this time, and when I attempted to bake it for Valentine's Day. Usually the bread is super soft and super banana filled. But this time not so much. If you all would like to try it out, the recipe is below, I know it might be weird for you to add sour cream to stuff but it's actually in a lot of cakes/breads. So don't be scared, you can't taste it. It's only to make the bread moist.

Life Updated?

Yeah, so I've had a blog for some time, but I never use it. I originally had it for a friend of mine that can't grow plants worth shit. I had tips and tricks and what fertilizers I recommended. Did it matter? No. So I scrapped it and I'm starting over, this time I'm going to do an art blog. Although I'm leaving the address as "loveisforplants" because love IS for plants, and boy, do I love my plants.
