Banana Bread


I will be honest, I have no idea where this recipe came from, but it has been in my family forever. It is so simple and so delicious. In fact, I was told by a "banana bread connoisseur" (a.k.a. Mike B. from Chemical Engineering) that it was THE best all-around banana bread he has ever had.
I have to agree with Mike, but I guess I am a little biased. Anyway, do not take my word for it and try it for yourself!
