Aha! Miss Kitten in my Weight Watchers meeting is a retired Home Ec. teacher, and one day she gave us all a lot of tips about produce. One was that, to make your bananas last, you cut the stems off as close as you can get without exposing the banana. Then you put it in the refrigerator. The skins will still darken, but the banana will be fine.
That’s good news to know. Thanks!
If I had paper bags (lunch sacks) I could use them for refrigerating bananas, but this sounds like a very good idea.
It is still a stellar day outside, but I am in for the night. One of my neighbors who since moved to an assisted living complex, left a couple of plastic lawn/patio chairs in her patio. She had marked them with “13-A” so when someone took them walkabout, they ended up back in her patio.
The person who moved in after she moved out, passed away within two months of moving in. The chairs sat there ever since. I talked to Charlie today and told him I was going to take them, since Myrtle wouldn’t object! So now, I have five patio chairs to seat all the folks who want another beer and pizza party in the coming warm months. The last time, we were one chair short.
If I can’t buy the pizza, beer or wine, I can at least furnish the patio, the table and the chairs! :o])
