Default Re: Spoiled on homegrown bananas

Everyone always calls them ladyfingers, but they are actually dwarf cavendish, just a five inch sugary snack. I've found that if I peel them, wrap them up in tinfoil with butter and brown sugar and put them in the oven that they make an exceptional dessert with a little whipped cream on top. If you were one of the 50 people that worked with me you would get to partake in the (sometimes) overabundance in my yard. Last summer it seemed like I was bringing some kind of fruit to work every week. No one person can go through 1000 lbs of avocados, 200 lbs of mangos and a ton of bananas in one year. I've decided this year that I will brighten the days of some people at the homeless shelter.
