Monkey Speech Bubble Magnet Set

I loved the Einstein Speech Bubble magnet set I made recently.  It made me giggle.  A few days ago, I'd gotten in order from my etsy shop (shameless plug :)) for a monkey magnet and while working on the magnet, my thoughts kept drifting back to the Einstein magnets.  So from that point, I knew the monkey needed a speech bubble of his own.  What does society say monkeys should speak about?  Why, bananas of course!

Say what?!

cutest monkey ever
I'm in love with this monkey

Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin


I don't know what has gotten into me lately but I've been cooking more and more out of my normal comfort zone and I started baking.  In the past, I've usually baked from the "boxed" mixes and it's been over 10 years since I've baked from scratch.  When I was baking from scratch, it was few and far between.  Part of it is because I don't have anyone to bake for and the other part is that I don't have a working oven so baking is done through my toaster oven.  

This week, I've already made nutella cookies and White Chocolate Chip Orange cookies.  Today, I decided to bake banana chocolate chip muffins since I had two super ripe bananas awaiting their demise for a few days now.  I found this awesome recipe from Food.com and basically halved the ingredients since I only had two ripe bananas instead of the 4 it calls for.  I ended up with 10 muffins and they are delish.  Not too shabby for only picking up baking again after a 10 years plus hiatus.  At least now, I can bake for friends and coworkers for birthdays and get-togethers.
