Happy Monday yet again!
The weeks are going by so fast. It seems like it was just New Year's, doesn't it?
Over the weekend we stayed snuggly and I even made banana bread! Well... Drunken Banana Bread!
I was reading about how Jamaicans love banana bread as their favorite "sweet ting" and that quite a few Jamaican Banana Bread recipes call for a hearty splash of rum.
I recommend more than 1 shot in your recipe and make sure you compensate extra flour for extra liquid added to the batter. I've shared the recipe here if you want to give it a try! I made it for breakfast Sunday since we ran out of cereal and I couldn't have been more happy with how it tasted!
On another note, I'm in full-panic mode for Omaha Fashion Week. I have the pattern drafted and the fabric yardage calculated with math. It's quite odd to design a miniature wedding dress... same proportions, fabric and craftsmanship a regular-sized wedding dress will demand but in a third of the size. It's crazy!
I decided on my outfit for the Designer Application interview and I have to apply on Wednesday.

Yum, drunken banana bread sounds delicious! Keep up the great work toward reaching your dreams, HillJo! You are absolutely going to rock Omaha Fashion Week, and your determination inspires me to keep striving to reach my goals, too.
As with everyone above, I love banana bread...haven't tried the "drunken" kind, though. Happy Valentine's Day, HiLLjO!
