Banana cake

 


Ingredients

Instructions

Preparation

  1. Attach the wire whisk to the mixer.
  2. Cut the butter into six to eight pieces. Put the butter into the mixing bowl.
  3. Remove the skin and mash the banana with the back of the knife. Reserve some bananas unmashed, and cut into forty thin slices crosswise. Reserve them for decoration. Keep the mashed and sliced banana in the refrigerator.
  4. Cut the chocolate to slices thinly with the knife follow by cutting it again lengthwise. It will shatter into tiny pieces of chips by itself.
  5. Measure the amount of cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Crack the eggs.

Make the cake

  1. Cream the butter and sugar together at high speed.
  2. Add the eggs to the mixer and continue mixing at high speed until homogenous.
  3. Scrape the side of the mixing bowl (and the bottom if you can) with a soft plastic spatula.
  4. Add the mashed bananas. Mix at low speed.
  5. Add the flour, salt, and baking powder at low speed until there is NO visible flour and lumps. Once you get there, stop mixing.
  6. Add the chocolates and mix well.

Panning and final touch

  1. Line the cake pans with baking paper. Apply some oil to the baking paper and the sides of the baking pan.
  2. Pour the cake batter into the pan.
  3. Smoothen the batter with the spatula.
  4. Arrange the banana pieces that we have reserved earlier on the surface for decoration.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for sixty minutes with both top and the bottom temperature at 175°C/350°F.
  6. Remove the cake from the cake pan.

A Turn of the 20th Century Kitchen Style

Beauty - The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. Audrey Hepburn

 











Cats - A lie is like a cat: you need to stop it before it gets out the door or it’s really hard to catch.

 


There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats.


A cat will be your friend, but never your slave.


No home is complete without the pitter patter of kitty feet.


It is impossible to keep a straight face in the presence of one or more kittens.


If cats could talk, they wouldn’t.


A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way.


Here's a dozen of my favorite things never to apologize for:


1) Never apologize for acting on your instincts.
2) Never apologize for being passionate.
3) Never apologize for being smart.
4) Never apologize for demanding respect.
5) Never apologize for saying no.
6) Never apologize for not embracing someone else's agenda.
7) Never apologize for disagreeing.
8) Never apologize for your faith.
9) Never apologize for your own sense of creativity.
10) Never apologize for ordering dessert.
11) Never apologize for being funny.
12) Never apologize for living your truth.


Every one of us casts a shadow.

There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.

The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
