Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
dash salt
dash cinnamon
dash nutmeg
1 egg, beaten
2 large mashed bananas
1/2 cup sugar (can do half brown, half white)
1/4 cup oil
Optional: handful of chopped walnuts
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, spray loaf pan (I used silicone) with cooking spray.
Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Make a “well” in the center of mixture.
In a small bowl, combine egg, banana, sugar, oil and (optional) walnuts. Add to flour mixture.
Stir until just moistened, pour into prepared loaf pan.
Bake 25-30 minutes.
Yum. I took a slice straight out of the oven and spread almond butter on it. So. Good.

I’m just not angry
3 JunI tweeted yesterday that I scrawled something in my journal in my therapist’s parking lot so it would look like I’d done something. The topic has been on my mind for a while. This is what I wrote:
Many fat girls are angry. It seems like a lot of fat bloggers are angry. Angry at:
Themselves
Their parents
The “fashion” industry
The men in their lives
“Skinny bitches”
The food industry
Mainstream media
God
Airlines
Barbie
And on & on & on.
I’m not really all that angry. Maybe I’d be a better writer if I were.
I used to have a political bumper sticker that said, “If you’re not angry, you’re not paying attention.”
I think I’m attentive. I’m
Just
Not
Angry.
(& I’m not even medicated!)
