Happy Valentines Day

I need a less interesting book. I managed to read right past my bus stop in Soller and right into the Port du Soller. I decided to roll with it and found a seat in the sun at an open air café near the water and had lunch and continued to read my book. I then took the trolley back up Soller and tried to run all my errands. I succeeded in running a few, but Spain closes for the afternoon so there were some things I could not pick up. A hand mixer for instance so that I can perfect my banana bread. I also discovered that my policy of only using a basket to go grocery shopping should be maintained. I decided to get a cart this time and managed to get far too many groceries to comfortably carry home. My shopping took up it’s own double seat on the bus. I spent more money than usual as well.

Banana cake has been achieved. After borrowing an egg beater from my neighbor I tried once more to make banana bread. So I was short a banana and it turns out about half a cup of flour, but it all worked out. Particularly as I managed to pull it out of the oven at the right time. Now that I have managed to turn it into cake I will put it in a cake tin and frost it with Banana and White Chocolate butter cream frosting and then sprinkle it with shaved white chocolate. I will then have to find someone to give it to.

I hope everyone has a Happy Valentines Day.
