Mom's Banana Bread



It's humble. It's a modest housewife's sweet response to the ethos of Mom's Depression Era generation - 'waste not, want not'. It's one of the first baked quick breads that Mom showed me how to make.

She came around in later years ... and now, her legacy lives on and continues to grow in her kids and grands, and great-grands.
