Suffice it to say the last few days have been hellish. So instead of anything too exciting, you get pictures. Mostly pictures. Of cocoa-nana bread, which I didn't try. And a distinct lack of pictures of this month's Daring Baker challenge (nanaimo bars). Not because I didn't make them. I did! I halved the custard layer, replaced coconut with oats, and put peanut butter in the custard layer and peanuts in the base layer. They were fabulous. But they stuck to the bottom of the pan. I cursed at them, swore at them, but they wouldn't budge.
So pictures. Pictures, and this post, which seems to have come at the perfect time for me. Hopefully I'll be back to normal soon, but until then - pictures.

Ciao ! I hope you can relax some time !!!
take a deep breath and eat something sweet and u will feel better :)
I hope you find some time to relax and do something for you! Love the photos!
You know the saying, "A picture is worth a 1000 words." Nuff said.
Looks good.
If you're going to have a post of pictures, at least they're really nice pictures!
ditto to everyone else - nice pics!!!
well at least they are fabulous pictures!!
Hope things settle down soon for you! Great pictures - sometimes that's enough.
Caitlin, I know exactly how you feel. Right now, it's like my life is speeding up around me. And I can't run that fast .... EEEK! So busy. Don't have time to do the things I wanted to.
That would have been so frustrating re: the Nanaimo bars. It asked for an ungreased pan, which made me suspicious but I put a little lick of butter around it, just in case. Maybe that's what happened? Anyway, I can just picture them with your own spin of oats and peanut butter. And let's not forget this fabulous banana chocolate loaf. How great would that be with my banana pudding ice cream? ;)
You bread looks fabulous! I hope you feel better soon!
Sorry to hear about your frustrations, Caitlin-- were you eventually able to try the bread? I wonder why the guys didn't like it, as it looks so good :(
A perfect breakfast, the most important meal of the day! Thanks for sharing!

Maybe a block of chocolate, the sort that, just for one day, doesn't require you to break out any dishes, or get flour all over your freshly-cleaned floor, will make you feel better. Cheerrup!!:)
yikes--i hope you get a breather soon! sounds like you have someone to lean on though, which is ever so important.
Hang in there, Caitlin! I hope things settle down for you soon. =)
Chocolate and banana bread? That sounds like the ultimate comfort food. Hope things get better for you soon!
Much as my bars turned out well, I'd rather have this chocolate bread nayday. Seriously. I love chocolate and bread too.
