Dinner and a Movie Friday

I know what you are thinking why would you go to this movie. Hey sometimes we have to do what we don't want to do. I can honestly say I have never been to a Fast & Furious movie before. I can't say I haven't watch bits and pieces of all of the previous Fast & Furious on TV. It was really entertaining from the first minute of the movie. Paul Walker had my attention when he took his dogs across Alaska in Eight Below. He is back again with Vin Diesel and that deep voice of his. Michelle Rodriquez and Jordana Brewster are also back. Boy the action is intense. Women if the hubby or boy friend wants to go check it out you can make it . Or just send the boys and go have a peddi. The entire audience was high school boys except little old me. It is rated PG13.

I have to thank the hubby for today's bread he makes this about once a week by requests. I have never made this recipe before. I will say I haven't had banana nut bread with this much flavor ever it always comes out perfect. Check out all of the spices he puts in.
