I actually started writing this a few weeks ago when bananas seemed to be ‘on the turn’ all the bloody time. Now they are staying green for fucking ever. Or if they’re not, you’ve had the heating on too much😂😂😂

Craving coffee cake this morning. Coffee cake and cheesecake are my favourites.

An appealing piece of prose 😉. We have a penchant for alliteration. Banana Cake just doesn’t work as well. Neither does Carrot Bread.

Ah Julie strikes again! What a wonderful piece. I find myself confronting different outcomes earlier in life than I anticipated. I can’t share my thoughts as they will appear callous or selfish. I’m not the one physically suffering am I. Maybe I should document my thoughts somewhere, I’ve always enjoyed writing things down on paper, with a pencil, old school.

The older I’ve gotten I’ve embraced my selfishness Janette. I truly believe that not prioritising our own wants and needs results in bitterness. Something is suppressed and that can’t be good. When we nourish ourselves we then nourish the world around us with the sweetness of that.
