blueberry banana bread

This banana bread reminds me of home. My mom makes banana bread using this recipe. The recipe comes from a cookbook I got from my mom.  She got it from my grandmother. It is one of those books where the pages are worn, torn, and stained. All signs of a good cookbook.

Mr. J and I moved into our new home this past weekend. Our first home.  It is a bit of a mess still but I love being there. I love fixing it up. I love finding the best spot for all of our belongings.

Since we have left the apartment he proposed to me in and the apartment we came home to as a married couple in, I wonder what memories we will make in our new house.  Our home. 

Of course I know there will be plenty of recipe making, cooking and baking to come. We just have to get the kitchen put together first.
