So Mr. Mac has been wanting to make banana bread for 6 days now. Each night, as we get ready to read bedtime stories, he wails in agony, having just remembered that we failed to make the banana bread that day. 
So today, we did it. Or at least we tried to.
I gave each boy a bowl of bananas to mash (we were making two batches), and left the room for 5 seconds. When I came back in, Carter had headed for asylum in his room, and there was a mashed/smashed bowl of bananas--in shards and goop--on the floor. Oops. Despite the fact that it was unintentional, Carter was hysterical.
Many banana-inspired tears later, I coaxed him to come back out and bake with us.
Mac and I, in the meantime, had pureed the bananas and poured them into the bowl. Mad that he didn't get to puree, Carter stomped to the table, rather emphatically grabbing a bowl he thought was his. Um, yeah, you guessed it, it was the bowl with the puree. Which was "emphatically" sloshed all over the table, chair, floor, rug, and Carter.
Bummer. No more bananas. We ended the night with three delicious loaves of pumpkin chocolate chip bread.

I totally prefer pumpkin chocolate chip to banana anyway.
And you make the best pumpkin chocolate chip bread. I know because I ate half a loaf and got sick :)
