Running Mama Cooks

For my bridal shower, I received a beautiful cookbook with recipes submitted by my friends and family. This one is from my Aunt Lenora. Since we had exactly 3 bananas that would have gone bad and a gloomy fall day, Cecily and I made banana bread. I loved that this recipe is really healthy, have to get back on the wagon after stuffing myself full of Halloween candy!!
