Forgotten Bananas

Last Saturday I bought 4 small bananas.

I threw them on the counter and promptly forgot about them. Don't they look awful?

You are only looking at the skins. I forgot to take a pic before I removed the banana.
Don't they look better now? Especially with the cream cheese/rum frosting.

I doctored up a yellow cake mix to make a banana/artificial-rum-flavored cake.
I used the Irish Creme instead of milk in the frosting. I must say it all combined for a nice little dessert. I baked them in a larger pan so I would have a higher proportion of frosting to cake. I hate getting a 4-inch high piece of cake with 1/8-inch layer of frosting.
I rarely bake anymore (especially on a work night!). For some reason I was full of cooking/baking energy last night.

It must be the colder weather.

Since I am not cooking much, my potatoes look like this:

So I took a couple outside this morning and planted them just to see what would happen.
This is a bare spot in the rockwall garden where I have been using roundup to kill off the goutweed.

A few weeks ago I decided to pull out my one remaining garden chair. I didn't have any annuals left so I just planted some of my perennials in it.

This week my first calla lily bloomed.
